Software :: Resolution Not Listed On Nvidia-settings?
Jun 9, 2010
i'm having a problem with nvidia-settings is that my resolution is not listed in. the only resolutions available are 640x480 and 320x240, the "detect display" doesn't work either.by the way i'm using the driver from nvidia site.other point is that i couldn't change resolution on kde before i installed the nvidia driver, it just showed the same two resolutions, i thought it was because i hadn't install the nvidia drivers but i got the same problem.

I recently installed Ubuntu, 10.4
My problem is that when i log in, the resolution isnt what i want. So i change it via the Nvidia x server settings, and press Save to x config file
Yet when i log in again, it defaults back to what it was before i changed it?
Iv looked all over the internet for the past 2 days and nothing seems to work.

After installing some (much needed) upgrades, I am stuck being unable to install nvidia-settings after screen-resolution-extra upgraded from .11 to .13. Nvidia-settings, supposedly, requires .11. I can, of course, downgrade to .11, but I do not know if this is recommended. Is there anyway to get nvidia-settings back without downgrading? What is a good course of action?

I just bought a new 24inch monitor that supports the resolution 1920x1200. Unfortunately, the nvidia-settings dialog does not have this resolution as an option (currently running on 1920x1080). The graphics card is Geforce 6200 (should support the wanted resolution), and the monitor is connected with the VGA cable (if that matters).

I've been using Ubuntu on and off for the past few years, however since the release of Ubuntu 10.04 I have decided to dedicate my Dell laptop to Ubuntu. Everything is up and running smoothly with one exception: my screen resolution. My graphics card is an NVidia Geforce Go 7300, and as such I am using the "NVidia accelerated graphics driver (version current)." Compiz is working properly and the only issue I'm having with this setup is that my screen resolution is way too large for me to be able to see it. The screen is a 15.4 inch and the native resolution of 1680x1050 is exceptionally difficult to read. In the NVidia settings I am looking for a resolution of 1280x800, a resolution which I have used before on this laptop in a different operating system, however the closest I can come without stretching the image is 1440x900. I have searched both this forum and google religiously in search of an answer to this problem - not just today, but many times in the past; once for each version of Ubuntu that was released. Each attempt mutilating the xorg.conf file in a different manner, yet all to no avail. I have spent a woeful amount of my life trying to fix this issue, however I have succumb to failure and futility each time. I am willing to try a vast number of things that I have not already attempted in order to fix this, as well as a few tried methods that I may have executed incorrectly; as I would like to have a readable screen with which to use my laptop. Below is the contents of my laptop's current xorg.conf file.
Code:
# nvidia-settings: X configuration file generated by nvidia-settings
# nvidia-settings: version 1.0 (buildd@palmer) Fri Apr 9 10:35:18 UTC 2010
Section "ServerLayout"
Identifier "Layout0"
Screen 0 "Screen0" 0 0

I am running this on my old PC with core2duo, Intel motherboard DG31PR, Integrated Intel GMA 3100 Graphics(intel G31 Exprss chipset) , 3 GB RAM I went to Hardware information in YAST and found some discrepancies.
1. desktop board is listed as D945GTP instead of DG31PR
2. in framebuffer 1440 X 900 is not listed which is my monitor resolution
3. BIOS info has no vendor name

I just upgraded from Lucid via update manager. I removed the video driver before upgrading like it was recommended in some posts but now i can not get it back. If I go to System>>Administration>>Additional Drivers nothing is listed. I tried installing the driver from Software Center but i could not enable desktop effects. After it was installed form SF it was displayed in Additional Drivers as installed but NOT in use.

Using online Debian guide, installed latest nvidia-current, glx etc which seems to be 195.xx Machine boots to GUI but monitor setting menu doesnt respond nor is there an nvidia specific one. xorg.conf shows 'nvidia' driver but I suspect I am still on 'nouveau' since the synapatic package manager doesn't show an nvidia xserver-xorg-video choice.
Second question, any trailheads for using wheezy based drivers (i.e. nvidia's latest 270.xx) with squeeze?

I've got a Disney edition Asus EeePC with an xp/9.10 nbr dual boot.The 9" screen has a native resolution of 1024x600, but in xp it can expand that to 1024x768- either by scrolling the desktop up and down a bit, or by what they call "LCD Compress" mode, where ever thing gets squished vertically a bit to fit 768pixels of info in 600 pixels of space.
My daughter uses it to play games on webkinz.com, and their games pop up on a 800px high non resizable or scrollable window, so there are controls and junk that fall off the bottom that can't be reached unless I'm put it in one of the 768 pixel modes. That, and with her task bar set to auto hide, she can play games and have a good time. how do I set up Ubuntu 9.10 to do the same thing? Right now, the only screen resolution in Ubuntu is 1024x600.

Cheese works sucessfully with my webcam, but the stuff it records in .ogg is pukeish of quality. I have a dual core high performance laptop and am wondering if there is no way to crank up the resolution or lessen the compression on the videos that get saved for higher quality. Cheese seems to have no settings whatsoever.

I've installed Fedora 12 KDE using VMWare, but I can't for the life of me get my display settings to stick. When I change the resolution, my display responds appropriately but upon logging out or rebooting, these settings are lost. Am I missing something completely obvious here?

I am loving Slackware, but my Westinghouse monitor is having a hard time recognizing the screen resolution. After typing in startx, I get a black screen. I can plug my box into my trusty test monitor, change the res to a config that the Westinghouse will recognize,then switch monitors and all is fine.How can I edit the res and have Slackware remember the settings? This happens every time I reboot. I am logging in as root, I have not added a user yet at this point.

Recently I have acquired 2-port KVM switch. When the monitor is connected through this KVM in Windows 7 resolution is properly detected - 1280x1024. When I go under Linux (openSUSE 11.4 with KDE, nVidia 260.19.44) there is a problem with the resolution. In the screen settings does not appear a resolution higher than 1024x768. How do I set the desired resolution in Linux?

I'm trying to install Ubuntu Desktop 10.10 on an Intel Atom mainboard (Intel D945GCLF2) with CRT that has been running Ubuntu 9.x previously.
Both, Desktop live CD / installer and alternate install CD cause the screen to go black (and the status LED blinks).
I was able to get a bit further into the boot process with nomodeset as parameter with the Live CD, unfortunately I can't pass GRUB any parameters now that I have used the alternate Install CD by pressing 'e', it just boots.
So now I have Ubuntu installed, I get a terminal with CTRL-ALT-F1 but I don't know what I need to do now or how to adjust resolution or video settings from command line.

Just got an HP dv6-2150 laptop. Dual boot with Windows 7 and 9.04 (9.10 will not work but that's a different story). The screen resolution is too low and is set at the highest option available (1024x768 which is a 4:3 aspect ratio). The HP uses the new Intel i3-330m chipset with on-board Intel HD graphics. The system is capable of 1366x768 resolution (16:9) - so how do I get it there? xorg.conf looks real generic - nothing specific to Intel.

I have installed Ubuntu 10.4 on Virtual Box, I have installed it successfully, the only problem is when I check the display settings it only have 2 options : 600 X 400 and 800 X 600 and this makes it difficult to work on Ubuntu as 800 X 600 is half the size of my desktop. How I can increase / configure the display settings so that atleast I can fit ubuntu screen into my screen size.
I did install the addition application, restarted the OS but still I don't see any display resolution 1200 X 800, tried pressing ctrl+D nothing happens, after installing I saw it updated mouse cursor now i don't have to press ctrl key again n again to enter into the ubuntu OS but still struggling with the resolution as it's too small, please guide me (here is the screen shot of my screen after installing the addition app).

I believe the Nvidia drivers were installed by default.. as I run the command:
I get:
However, when I do nvidia-settings, I get "command not found".
How do I see if the proprietary Nvidia drivers are installed?
Also, with GNome (on Ubuntu for sure), I can see a GUI tool to configure my NVidia settings.. how do I access this tool with KDE?

I can't seem to pass 1360x768 on my nvidia 9400 gt 512mb ram. The current driver is 260.19.36 and I've installed the recommended current found under additional drivers however I am still limited in resolution. How do I bump it up to my previously used (Windows 7) 1680x1050?

I'm a relatively new Debian user, having come from Ubuntu. I recently bought a Dell micro-server to function as my Kodi media player. I installed an nVidia GeForce 210 to output to my Pioneer home theatre amplifier. The amp takes all my inputs (eg. Satellite set-top decoder, PS3, Kodi etc) and outputs to the TV. I installed XFCE as my desktop environment so that I could still interact with it via VNC.
Everything is working great except for one exceptionally annoying problem! Every day, I find that I am having to VNC into the desktop, load up nVidia X Settings, and change my screen resolution from Auto to 1920x1080 because it has lost the display configuration and the screen is blank. I presume this happens when the amplifier switches from one input to the next. It doesn't matter if I save the configuration to my X11.conf file or not - it still resets itself.
Before, this setup would run for months without any intervention (Same amplifier + HP microserver + Ubuntu + LXDE + ATI video card), so I'm pretty confident that the issue is either Debian, XFCE, or the nVidia card.

How do I do this? You do not appear to be using the NVIDIA X driver. Please edit your X configuration file (just run `nvidia-xconfig` as root), and restart the X server.

I plugged the usual 4-pin s-video cable into my TV and graphics card. I went to nvidia x server settings, nothing. I hit detect monitors, nothing. I changed the TV to the proper input channel, Nothing. It's a bit annoying,I used it with the old GeForce Ti4200.

This is my first posting as a Linux Newbie. I have installed Ubuntu 10.04 inside of a MS Virtual PC on my Vista machine. Everything seems to work beautifully and is stable. However, I would like to use a resolution higher than the current maximum of 800x600. I've poked around on the web and have tried various tips. I tried using the xrandr options which added a higher resolution mode, but when I would try to set the output to that resolution, I would get an error message to the effect that I could not exceed the current maximum of 800x600.
I tried to cobble parameter values together and create an xorg.conf file, but every iteration seems to produce a bunch of colorful vertical bars within my Virtual PC window, and I would have to blow away that virtual PC setup and rebuild it (along with reinstalling Ubuntu). As I said, 800x600 is not a show stopper, but I would like to take advantage of the real estate I have with my display. These "fifty-five year old" eyes could benefit from the larger size. FYI, I did take a stab at installing Virtual Box, but got the infamous "blue screen", so I would rather stick with what appears to be a stable virtual PC base.

I'm on a 64-bit machine running Debian 8.2 "Jessie" with MATE Desktop Environment.
I have a Geforce GTX 650ti video card.
I'm logged in as a non-superuser account named "john."
I open NVIDIA X Server Settings GUI, change my monitors' brightness from 0.000 to -0.1, go to the "nvidia-settings Configuration" section, click "Save Current Configuration" and click "Quit."
But when I reboot, the brightness is back at 0.000.
