[Bug 31830] Re: Incorrect screen resolution in Dapper LiveCD unless HorizSync and VertRefresh specified

[Bryce Harrington]

** Summary changed:

- Incorrect screen resolution in Dapper LiveCD
+ Incorrect screen resolution in Dapper LiveCD unless HorizSync and VertRefresh specified

** Description changed:

  The screen resolution in X is not correct. It appears in 640x480, 24 bit
  color. In "System -> Preferences -> Screen resolution" I can't change
  the resolution to another one (only appears "640x480", 60 Hz).
  
  I have a MSI K7N2G-ILSR motherboard (3 years, more or less), with nVidia
  nForce2 chipset. I use the internal graphics card. Breezy works
  perfectly for me (installed and LiveCD).

+ 0000:03:00.0 VGA compatible controller: nVidia Corporation NV18 [GeForce4 MX - nForce GPU] (rev a3)
+ 0000:03:00.0 0300: 10de:01f0 (rev a3)
