Comments on: Ubuntu 8.04 And The ATEN CS1734B http://wombatdiet.net/2008/04/24/ubuntu-804-and-the-aten-cs1734b/ Powdered wombat guts and other sources of feelings of wellbeing Thu, 21 Aug 2008 06:20:57 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.6.1 By: Eats Wombats http://wombatdiet.net/2008/04/24/ubuntu-804-and-the-aten-cs1734b/#comment-5593 Eats Wombats Fri, 04 Jul 2008 17:49:45 +0000 http://wombatdiet.net/?p=209#comment-5593 Update: I reported the problem to ATEN and they promised to look into it. They later said "it's a problem with the monitor." Ubuntu detects the monitor correctly and configures the maximum resolution automatically if the ATEN switch isn't used. When it is used, the display resolution is set incorrectly. But this didn't happen with Ubuntu 7.10. It seems to be the combination of Ubuntu 8.04 and this switch, and maybe this monitor. I'll try Ubuntu 8.10 one of these days. Update:
