Description of problem: I connect a full HD TV to the HDMI port of the netbook and the resolution selected is lower than the value I expected. The netbook (Nvidia ION MCP79 based HP Mini 311c-1101SA) has 1366x720 display and the TV is 1920x1080. xrandr shows: [cxm@newt ~]$ xrandr Screen 0: minimum 320 x 200, current 2646 x 768, maximum 8192 x 8192 LVDS-1 connected 1366x768+0+0 (normal left inverted right x axis y axis) 256mm x 144mm 1366x768 60.0*+ 1024x768 59.9 800x600 59.9 640x480 59.4 720x400 59.6 640x400 60.0 640x350 59.8 VGA-1 disconnected (normal left inverted right x axis y axis) HDMI-1 connected 1280x720+1366+0 (normal left inverted right x axis y axis) 708mm x 398mm 1280x720 60.0* 640x480 60.0 Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): xorg-x11-drv-nouveau-0.0.16-24.20110324git8378443.fc15.i686 How reproducible: 100% Steps to Reproduce: 1.connect TV 2.check xrandr 3. Actual results: screen resolution is 1366x768 (display functions at this resolution and is usable, although I get the impression it is slightly clipped - a few pixels top and bottom are missing and quite a few on the left and right, enough to only see the 'e' from the File menu in a terminal that is fullscreened) Expected results: Ability to select higher resolution up to TV maximum (netbook reviews suggest it should be possible) Additional info: A separate report relates to the missing sound on HDMI: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=712569
Thanks for the bug report. We have reviewed the information you have provided above, and there is some additional information we require that will be helpful in our diagnosis of this issue. Please add drm.debug=0x04 to the kernel command line, restart computer, and attach * your X server config file (/etc/X11/xorg.conf, if available), * X server log file (/var/log/Xorg.*.log) * output of the dmesg command, and * system log (/var/log/messages) to the bug report as individual uncompressed file attachments using the bugzilla file attachment link above. We will review this issue again once you've had a chance to attach this information. Thanks in advance.

Apologies for the delay. I had a chance to look at this again with F16, xorg-x11-drv-nouveau-0.0.16-27.20110720gitb806e3f.fc16.i686 On booting, gdm appeared at 640x480 with both displays showing the same image (mirrored?). After login it changed to two different screens. Using xrandr and the gnome-settings dialog, I was able to set both displays at most to 1366x768 which is the native size of the laptop panel. Then the TV claims to be showing 1280x720 but it is centering the 1366x768 image and showing an innermost 1280x720 pixels of it - so the edges of the image are lost. I wondered if this is a bug where some config is taken from a structure related to the laptop panel not the HDMI output? Ideally I'd like to have a fix for acccurate fullscreen for displaying media, getting the full 1280p resolution I suppose may be difficult due to memory constraints (although I believe it was a selling point of the laptop that it could do this with Windows! As a secondary issue the setting to 640x480 seems unjustifiable, it would be better to drive the internal panel at native resolution and choose the nearest setting or the native setting for the outboard display, within reason.
This message is a notice that Fedora 15 is now at end of life. Fedora has stopped maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora 15. It is Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained. At this time, all open bugs with a Fedora 'version' of '15' have been closed as WONTFIX. (Please note: Our normal process is to give advanced warning of this occurring, but we forgot to do that. A thousand apologies.) Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, feel free to reopen this bug and simply change the 'version' to a later Fedora version. Bug Reporter: Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we were unable to fix it before Fedora 15 reached end of life. If you would still like to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it against a later version of Fedora, you are encouraged to click on "Clone This Bug" (top right of this page) and open it against that version of Fedora. Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes bugs or makes them obsolete. The process we are following is described here: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/BugZappers/HouseKeeping
