--- Comment #37 from Schelte Bron
But since vesa driver cannot support RANDR 1.2 I seriously doubt that you get also the native resolution on the LCD panel, if anything at all.
I am not really interested in using both screens at the same time. But when the laptop is in its docking station I want to use the 1280x1024 on the external screen. Also, I just wanted to use the vesa driver as a data point to prove the problem is in the intel driver. (In reply to comment #36)
Why don't you configure your external monitor in KDE with a resolution of 1280x1024, so everything is fine after login?
As I indicated in the initial description, that is the work-around I have been using. But it is a work around. The misbehaving login screen keeps me from doing things like selecting the session type (not to mention the criticism I get from win users when they see the login screen). So, when I found that the problem still had not been fixed in 11.2 I decided to report the bug. But I respect your opinion that the bug isn't worth fixing and I'll continue to use the work-around. Thank you for your assistance. -- Configure bugmail: http://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
