My notebook is wide screen, 1680x1050 When using ati-drivers 8.19.10 If it's in text mode, then everything is OK If I startx, then screen messed up Then if I come back to text console by pressing "ctrl-alt-f1" It's still messed up Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1.startx, or /etc/init.d/xdm start, and something like that 2. 3. Actual Results: screen messed up Expected Results: display the screen content normally Portage 2.0.53 (default-linux/x86/2005.1, gcc-3.4.3-20050110, glibc-2.3.5-r0, 2.6.14-nitro2 i686) ================================================================= System uname: 2.6.14-nitro2 i686 Intel(R) Pentium(R) M processor 1600MHz Gentoo Base System version 1.12.0_pre11 ccache version 2.4 [enabled] dev-lang/python: 2.3.5, 2.4.2 sys-apps/sandbox: 1.2.17 sys-devel/autoconf: 2.13, 2.59-r7 sys-devel/automake: 1.4_p6, 1.5, 1.6.3, 1.7.9-r1, 1.8.5-r3, 1.9.6-r1 sys-devel/binutils: 2.16.1-r1 sys-devel/libtool: 1.5.20-r1 virtual/os-headers: 2.6.11-r3 ACCEPT_KEYWORDS="x86 ~x86" AUTOCLEAN="yes" CBUILD="i686-pc-linux-gnu" CFLAGS="-O2 -march=pentium-m -pipe" CHOST="i686-pc-linux-gnu" CONFIG_PROTECT="/etc /usr/kde/2/share/config /usr/kde/3.5/env /usr/kde/3.5/share/config /usr/kde/3.5/shutdown /usr/kde/3/share/config /usr/lib/X11/xkb /usr/share/config /var/bind /var/qmail/control" CONFIG_PROTECT_MASK="/etc/gconf /etc/init.d /etc/splash /etc/terminfo /etc/texmf/web2c /etc/env.d" CXXFLAGS="-O2 -march=pentium-m -pipe" DISTDIR="/usr/portage/distfiles" FEATURES="autoconfig ccache distlocks fixpackages sandbox sfperms strict" GENTOO_MIRRORS="http://mirror.gentoo.gr.jp" LANG="en_US" LINGUAS="zh_CN" MAKEOPTS="-j1" PKGDIR="/usr/portage/packages" PORTAGE_TMPDIR="/var/tmp" PORTDIR="/usr/portage" PORTDIR_OVERLAY="/usr/local/got /usr/local/portage" SYNC="rsync://rsync.gentoo.org/gentoo-portage" USE="x86 X aac aalib acl acpi alsa apm arts audiofile avi bash-completion berkdb bitmap-fonts browserplugin bzip2 bzlib cairo caps cdparanoia cdr cdrom chroot cjk codecs cpdflib crypt cscope css cups curl curlwrappers dbm dio directfb divx4linux dri droproot dts dvd dvdr dvdread emboss encode esd ethereal exif expat fam fax faxonly fb fbcon ffmpeg firefox flac flatfile font-server foomaticdb fortran fpx freetype ftp ftruncate gdbm gif gimp glitz glut gmp gnome gnutls gphoto2 gpm gps graphviz gs gtk gtk2 hal iconv idea idn imagemagick imlib imlib2 immqt-bc inline java joystick jp2 jpeg jpeg2k junit kde kqemu lcms libcaca libg++ libwww linguas_zh_CN live lzo lzw lzw-tiff mad matroska mbox md5sum mhash mikmod mime mimencode ming mjpeg mmap mmx mmxext mng motif mozdevelop moznocompose moznoirc moznomail mozsvg mozxmlterm mp3 mpeg mpeg4 mplayer ncurses net network nls nptl nptlonly nsplugin ntlm offensive ogg oggvorbis ooo-kde opengl oss pam pcmcia pcre pda pdf pdfkit pdflib perl png pnp posix python qt quicktime readline real recode rtc ruby samba sdl skey slang sockets socks5 softmmu speex spell sqlite sse sse2 ssl svg svga symlink szip tcltk tcpd tetex theora threads tiff timidity truetype truetype-fonts type1 type1-fonts udev unicode usb v4l v4l2 vcd vhosts visualization vnc vorbis win32codecs wmf wxwindows xanim xine xinerama xinetd xml xml2 xmlrpc xmms xosd xprint xscreensaver xslt xv xvid xvmc zlib userland_GNU kernel_linux elibc_glibc" Unset: ASFLAGS, CTARGET, LC_ALL, LDFLAGS

I have the same problem. The newer ati-drivers doesn't recognize the internal LVDS, only the primary DAC. I have a HP Pavilion zt3000 series notebook, too.
I just tried ati-drivers-8.21.7, still the same problem. :(
(In reply to comment #4) > I just tried ati-drivers-8.21.7, still the same problem. :( > 8.22.5, same story
8.21.7-r1 still got this problem
I guess an ATI developer has been added to the CC list, so maybe the problem will hopefully be fixed by a patch or at least in the next release. ;)

Can the people this is affecting please post their XOrg.0.log as an attachment as well as provide as much identifying information as possible in the start of the log file to allow us to determine which laptops are affected.
Created attachment 84043 [details] Xorg.0.log, take a look at Line 488, lcd was recognized as crt
Created attachment 84060 [details] Xorg.0.log file. Here is my Xorg.0.log file.
Created attachment 86223 [details] Xorg.0.log Same Bug; using Hp Pavillion zt3000 series w/ ati mobility radeon 9200. LCD recognized as CRT. kernel version is 2.6.16-r3 (gentoo sources), xorg-x11 version is 7.0.0. Reproducible with every working version of ati-drivers with this kernel. Options in xorg.conf / "Device" section, as you can see also in the log file, such as "MonitorLayout" or "ForceMonitors" seem to be completely ignored.
