Only one resolution for a laptop screen, cannot change it

Asked by Jan Kybic

I have a Dell Latitude E6410 laptop with a 1440x900 screen. Before updating to Ubuntu 12.10, I could choose
from a number of resolution for the laptop screen, e.g. 800x600, 1024x768, for example through nvidia-settings.
After upgrading to Ubuntu 12.10, only 1440x900 is offered in either nvidia-settings or xrandr.
For example, when the beamer only supports 1024x768, I cannot set the same resolution for the laptop screen.
This is a problem when I want to attach a beamer to my laptop for presentations and clone the two displays, so that I see exactly the same thing on both screens.
What happens is that the screens are cloned but only part of the laptop screen is visible on the beamer.

For an external monitor I can choose from a number of resolutions offered, no problem. But not for the internal display.

I tried to upgrade the nvidia drivers to experimental but it did not change anything. I tried to force the lower resolution modes with xrandr --newmode and xrandr --addmode but it fails with "BadMatch (invalid parameter attributes)".

The graphics card is identified as NVS 3100M/PCIe/SSE2, VBIOS version 70.18.53.00.04, nvidia driver version 310.14

Should I report this as a bug? Thank you for your help.

Can you give the output of:

sudo lshw -C display; lsb_release -a; uname -a; xrandr

You are using the 310 driver from a PPA. I suggest you run:

sudo dpkg -P nvidia-current nvidia-settings
sudo apt-get --purge remove nvidia-settings-experimental-304 nvidia-experimental-310
sudo apt-get clean
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install nvidia-current

Reboot to test

No, I tried and it did not change anything.

Jan

P.S. There was no reason it should, since I have tried
nvidia-experimental only after discovering that nvidia-current had this problem.

If you run:

sudo nvidia-xconfig
gksudo nvidia-settings

set the res and refresh to something then click 'save to x config file'

then run:

gksudo gedit /etc/X11/xorg.conf

set the resolution you use in the file, replacing the resolution you set. Save the new file, reboot to test

No, it did not help.

In xorg.conf, I replaced

   Option "metamodes" "1440x900_60 +0+0"

by
   Option "metamodes" "1024x768_60 +0+0"

I am attaching both xorg.conf and Xorg.0.log for additional information.
I think the relevant lines are

 (WW) NVIDIA(GPU-0): Unable to read EDID for display device DFP-3
 ...
 (WW) NVIDIA(0): No valid modes for "1024x768_60+0+0"; removing.

I'm seeing the exact same issue since Ubuntu 12.10. I'm using a similar laptop model, Dell Latitude E6400. Any progress on this?

I have the same problem with a Latitude E6430. It is quite a big problem if I want to have the same screen on a beamer and the laptop. Is there any hint how this could be fixed?

It seams that due to the change to randr 1.2/1.3 in the newer nvidia drivers only native resolutions are shown in the nvidia-settings. It seams that nvidia sees this as a feature and therefore I do not expect any changes from nvidia (cf. https://devtalk.nvidia.com/default/topic/525287/linux/non-native-resolutions-not-available-in-3xx-drivers-on-8700m-gt/). A workaround is to use an old driver. For me, nvidia driver version 295.53 is working.

Can you help with this problem?
