EDIT: Now all resolutions are available. I am not aware of what did I do to change this...


Using Ubuntu 20.04 in my Lenovo Thinkpad P52.

I added custom screen resolution modes with xrandr, and made them permanent via ~/.xprofile:

xrandr --newmode "1344x768_60.00"   84.00  1344 1416 1552 1760  768 771 781 798 -hsync +vsync
xrandr --newmode "1344x744_60.00"   80.75  1344 1408 1544 1744  744 747 757 773 -hsync +vsync
xrandr --addmode eDP-1-1 "1344x768_60.00"
xrandr --addmode eDP-1-1 "1344x744_60.00"

Now they show as available in xrandr -q (see below), but they do not show in Settings -> Displays -> Resolution

enter image description here

Moreover, there are many other available modes, which were not added by me, which do not show in Settings either. I could select my custom modes via command line with, e.g.,

$ xrandr --output eDP-1-1 --mode "1344x744_60.00"

but I want to have them available also via menu.

How can I have at least my custom modes shown in Settings?

What determines which modes are shown in Settings?
