I have recently installed Ubuntu 10.04 beta version. After installation, my laptops screen resolution cant be increased to 1024x768. More over i cant see that 1024x768 option in the System>Prefrences>monitor option.
View 4 RepliesI am using a 15" CRT Samsung monitor and when I upgraded 10.10, the screen resolution became 800x600 and I am not able to increase the resolution of it. This was working fine with 10.04 version.
Below is the o/p for "xrandr":
xrandr: Failed to get size of gamma for output default
Screen 0: minimum 800 x 600, current 800 x 600, maximum 800 x 600
default connected 800x600+0+0 0mm x 0mm
800x600 0.0*
I also see a continuous message box at the top left corner of my monitor with text as "Unknown".
I recently upgraded my graphics card from a Geforce 7600GS to a Gefore 560Ti. And while most things are normal, during boot up my screen isn't "full screen" until X is started, after which everything else is fine. Essentially, all display, the grub menu, the splash screen, console text, etc, is within a box on the screen, with 2" on the left and right, and 1" top and bottom of empty blackness.
From what I understand, this is because the framebuffer is using the wrong resolution, but the maximum resolution that hwinfo --framebuffer returns is 1280x1024 (which I am already using "0x031a".) (My monitors is natively 1920x1080) Is it possible to do something about this? If not increase resolution than at least stretch the screen to full screen?

I can't increase my screen resolution to higher than 800x600. In Windows I have a 1024x768 resolution. This is my xorg.conf file

I have been arguing with my acer aspire one laptop since I bought it in terms of the screen resolution and have never been able to solve the problem, although I seem to be getting close. I just updated to 10.04 (the netbook remix).I have been following the instructions for how to fix it here. The result was this:
Code:
liz@Pippin:~$ cvt 1366 768

I recently installed 11.2 and am now trying to increase the maximum screen resolution.When I go to 'confifure desktop' > 'display' it will not let me increase the maxiumum screen resolution past 800X600.My nVidia 6150 LE drivers/kernal are installed, so I'm not sure quite what to do.

View 9 Replies View RelatedI am having a major problem in a new Karmic install. Big rationalisation. Kicked out a lot of machines in favour of Virtual machines. Installed Karmic. Machine has dual 22" wide screen monitors, max res 1680 x 1050. Karmic installed at maximum 800 x 600 and will not go above that. I have looked for xorg.conf and cannot find one anywhere. I have tried the randr as shown by Sharaq but when I try to set the higher resolution it gives message saying maximum size is 800 x 600. I have downloaded the proprietory drivers from Radeon and tried to run them. The installer runs but I cannot get to the 'Continue' button because it is off the bottom of my screen so I cannot set up the drivers. I suspect I am going to have the same problem with the Lucid install I did yesterday. Earlier releases never gave me this issue so why now?
Why is the initial resolution so low?
My machine is dated, that's for sure, but it's never given me problems. Ubuntu has worked flawless until the 10.04 update. Now I'm not getting my proper screen resolution of 1024.768, and Ubuntu won't recognise my screen. Also, when I try to load up my nvidia drivers on the Hardware Drivers app, and reboot the computer, when GDM loads I get an error that the nvidia module fails to load, and there is no such driver.

Just Installed the latest version of Ubuntu Netbook on my Toshiba Portege 7200 and the screen resolution is set to 800x600. The OS is not recognizing the fact the laptop can do 1024x768. I've been searching the net for a few hours to fix the problem and I'm not getting anywhere. The fix to the problem is to add the info below to the Xorg.conf file. This file does not seem to exsist on the latest version and if I create it manually it does not work.

I have a problem with the screen resolution in that most of the time it defaults to 800 x 600. However on occasions when I switch on the resolution increases however just today when it happened after typing in my password it refused to log me in.
Before anyone asks my password is in lower case and the NUMLOCK is off and I know I'm not mis-typing it.
here's the strange bit, when I reset the computer and the resolution goes back to 800 x 600 it then accepts my password. go figure!
I have installed Lucid on a PC with integrated graphics (GeForce 8100 on a Biostar GF8100 M2+ TE). On a fresh install the resolution is 1024x768, but that's no surprise as the Nvidea drivers are not installed. Immediately I get a notification of HW drivers available. I install the latest (recommended) ones (195.36.15). Reboot, and I can see other resolutions available:
1152x864
1360x768
I'm using a 19" Dell LCD (4:3 ratio) which supports up to 1280x1024. I can actually set the 1360x768 but, obviously, the screen looks ... squashed in the X axis. I noticed that the type of display is not identified (Nvidia panel says "CRT-0"), so I tried to manually add the 1280x1024 resolution. Below you can find the xorg.conf and the Xorg.0.log. It seems to me that the mode 1280x1024 is considered not valid for some reasons. The string for Modeline in the xorg.conf was determined using "cvt".
Here's the xorg.conf (after a few iterations, it became a bit busy ...):
# nvidia-xconfig: X configuration file generated by nvidia-xconfig
# nvidia-xconfig: version 1.0 (buildmeister@builder5 Fri Mar 12 02:12:40 PST 2010

View 4 Replies View RelatedI have an AMD Radeon HD 6950 and I know that no driver will be released for a while that works (current one causes xorg to crash and creates a reboot loop). Until then I have a 1920x1080 monitor running at 1280x1024 bc there are no higher settings.Is there any way to increase the resolution until the driver support comes? I tried a method involving xandr but that didnt work.
View 5 Replies View RelatedI have an EeePC 1005HA with Intel 945G chipset and graphics. I've got a 21" no-name touchscreen attached to the laptop with the intention of hiding the laptop away behind it and simply using the tactile widescreen with virtual keyboard (onboard). By the way, the Touch screen is working great OOTB in Ub 11.04, although will have to tweak some more to get multi-touch working.On it's own the netbook runs 1024x600 (16:9) automatically. As soon as I plug in the larger monitor and mirror the images it auto-defaults both to 800x600 60hz and I have no options to select a higher res. I want to be able to run the large screen in something like 1024x600 or better, as long as its 16:9. At the moment everything is stretched out on the larger screen and on the netbook I have a 800x600 with black margins left & right.
Can't seem to work it out. The Monitor Config doesn't give me any higher options than 800x600 when mirrored. Below is the output of xrandr, if it's any help. Also my xorg.conf file is practically empty.
Ive just installed Fedora 12, max resolution option is 800*600 can someone advise how i can adjust or improve the resolution to at least 1200*700?Hardware: HP D330m, 2.8GHZ, 700MB RAM, VGA is a Intel Extreme Graphics Display.
View 6 Replies View RelatedI was wanting to use StartUp-Manager to increase the resolution of the GRUB menu and the boot logo screen. Changing the resolution for the GRUB menu works fine. But the Ubuntu logo that should show up during the boot process is all scrambled across the screen. I tried multiple resolutions to fix it and none of them work. How do I restore everything back to their defaults? I tried putting the numbers all back to where they where when I first ran StartUp-Manager but that didn't fix it.
View 4 Replies View RelatedI know there are many threads on similar issues but I can't find anything that will work. Not sure if I need drivers or what to do - I feel really stupid as I should be able to get this right but I am at a brick wall. Basically I have a 20inch monitor hooked up to the on-board graphics card and cannot get higher resolution than 900 x 600. It should be at 1280 by 1240. This is a brand new install with the latest Ubuntu 10. Under monitor preferences its says 'unknown' for monitor type and I don't have any driver disk for this screen but never needed one previously.

I have 24" dual monitors with 1920x1080 resolution on both of them. Consequently the text appears so small. I use the following text-intensive applications frequently:
Web browser (Google Chrome)
IDE (Komodo)
Terminal (Gnome Terminal)
Email (Thunderbird)
I can configure text size on IDE, Terminal and Email. But for Chrome, it is not a good idea to set proportional font size because often one wants to see the entire (not just proportional fonts) site to be zoomed. So I am asking: Is it possible to increase DPI in Ubuntu (much like on Windows) so as to increase the text size across all apps? OR Is it possible to set permanent 'zoom' in Google Chrome, using a third-party extension maybe?
My Ubuntu laptop's screen goes black in about 10 or 15 minutes. I went into Screen Saver setup screen. Timeout when computer is considered idle there is set to 30 minutes and black screen screen saves is picked.
Why screen goes black after only 10-15 minutes and not 30 minutes?

View 2 Replies View RelatedBefore I upgrade to 10.4 It would be nice to find the best solution to this problem. I use a KVM switch that dont pass the EDID info from the screen to the OS. To solve this, that is, to get the correct screen resolution, i need to pass monitor and screen info to the OS at every startup. One way is to ad a script to /etc/gdm/init/default, or in KDE /etc/kde4/kdm/Xsetup.
