[Bug 432401] Re: [i915gm] Intel/KMS: Missing 1024 x 768 mode (regression from Jaunty)

[Chase Douglas]

I just noticed the upstream bug report. It seems fairly clear to me that
the old behavior was a side effect of poor edid interpretations by the
user-mode setting support. The new, more accurate behavior in kernel-
mode setting support is interpreting the edid parameters correctly and
only allowing resolutions that are strictly supported by the edid
timings. It is possible that 1024x768 could be coded as a default value
in X, but that's an X development issue (and likely would not be
accepted as reasonable).

It's still possible to create your own mode using xrandr, but there
won't be support for 1024x768 output on this device by default. As such,
I'm closing this bug as invalid.

** Changed in: linux (Ubuntu)
       Status: Confirmed => Invalid
