Bug Description
I booted Ubuntu 8.04 LTS (Hardy Heron) Alpha 3 dekstop i386 CD on a HP nw8440 laptop.
The laptop has a LCD with 1680x1050 pixels.
Ubuntu booted to 1280x1024 which looks very stretched.
After adding more wide refresh rate settings to xorg.conf, I could get 1400x1050 which is much better.
Of course 1680x1050 would be correct.
Will post additional details, if anyone is interested ;-)
