Ubuntu :: Adjust The Boot Up Screen Resolution?
Aug 7, 2010I just want to know how to adjust the screen resolution of my boot up screen. My PCs maximum resolution is 1366x768 but I think my boot up screen only uses 600x400. I doesn't look nice for me. The logo of Kubuntu is too big and the colors are not the true colors of the Kubuntu Boot up screen.

Ubuntu :: Adjust Screen Resolution On Samsung 40" LCD
Jul 19, 2010I have an HTPC mini computer, in which I've just installed Ubuntu 10.4 Lucid Lynx, and I tried all screen resolutions I could possibly use through the settings. And the top, bottom, left & right hand sides are out of the resolution. So for example the top and bottom taskbars are out of the screen. I'll be posting a photo later on today to show you people exactly what I mean. So that I can have Ubuntu's screen would fit all inside my LCD screen ? The HTPC runs an nVidia graphics card.

Jul 17, 2010Suffering from the expected error in detecting my video properly when installed 11.3.Have intel 915G onboard video. Up until 11.1 Opensuse struggled with loading this correctly. in 11.1 & 11.2 all was well. A couple of minor tweaks in sax2 and it worked perfectly. Now hat sax2 has gone I'm not sure how to make these minor tweaks.
My problem is I have been forced to a screen resolution of 1024X768 VGA Following the readme file adding nomodeset at boot fixes the problem but of course forces me back to an old video driver with pretty poor performance. Is there any way I can change the screen resolution and set the correct monitor - any GUI replacement for sax2? Krandrtray will only let me set a max res of 1024x768. I need to set res to 1280x1024
Ubuntu :: 10.04 Update Screwed Desktop - Cannot Adjust Screen Resolution
Apr 26, 2011The last update for 10.04 has really screwed my desktop. Several of the icons are off the bottom of the screen. All icons are too large. Can't adjust the screen resolution. Panel at the bottom when placed in autohide is so sensitive that it is almost impossible to use. Jumps up and down like a flea on a hot stove. I have reduced the sensitivity of the mouse to the minimum with no effect. There is no excuse for so many troublesome updates. The problem with using an external monitor with a laptop has never been resolved by Ubuntu.

CentOS 5 :: Adjust The Resolution With Xconfigurator?
Jun 10, 2011I am installing CentOS 5.6 on an old PC with a small LCD monitor. Anaconda did not determine that the resolution of the monitor is limited and it configured the display to 1280 x 1024 which is out of range for the monitor. So I connected a different monitor and completed the install then set the resolution to 1024 x 768 which the monitor should accept. I connected the small monitor but it still displays "OUT OF RANGE" when the PC boots.
I then connected to the PC over ssh and changed /etc/inittab to start in runlevel 3 and rebooted the PC. At the moment I am downloading the necessary updates with yum and pondering the problem. Some Internet searching tells me that I can adjust the resolution with Xconfigurator. That beings back old memories of Red Hat 7.x.
However, Xconfigurator is not present on the CentOS 5.6 install. So... short of shutting down the PC I am on now and transferring the monitor back to the old PC and trying another resolution etc. Is there a way to change the resolution without running the gnome gui and using the System; Preferences;Display Resolution tool? I am not running any proprietary video drivers on the PC.

Feb 28, 2011I'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.

View 5 Replies View RelatedUbuntu :: Adjust Screen Alignment For Virtual Terminals?
Oct 4, 2010When I installed 10.04 in April, I started having all sorts of problems with my Virtual Terminals (CTRL-ALT-F*). First they were inaccessible completely, then they were there, but not visible, i.e. I could use them to login and run commands, but there was no screen output, then they were gone again, and the fight just went on and on. I just recently got this functionality back after months just messing around, testing different peoples solutions, and really just not being afraid to break the whole thing. Ultimately, it boiled down to nVidea graphics driver problems.
However, now I notice that outside of gdm, the screen is not aligned properly. It seems to be about 2 characters to the left and several lines lower than it should be on VT1-VT6, while gnome is aligned perfectly. I can use my screens auto-adjust to fix the problem, but when I switch to another terminal, the problem comes back. It's not really a huge deal, but after all this trouble, I really just want them to work the way they are supposed to work. Does anyone know of a way to set the screen alignment via software, or am I just stuck dealing with it?
Fedora :: Adjust Screen Brightness
Mar 13, 2011Running F14 on Dell Studio 14 with LCD screen and US keyboard selected. After initial power on the keyboard selection of "Windows Key" + F4 will dim the screen and the "Windows Key" + F5 will brighten the screen. When being used, either combination will also show a meter on the screen to display the adjustment of the brightness. When the lid is closed the computer is set to suspend by default. After the computer is brought back from suspend the keyboard short cuts no longer control the brightness and the meter does not appear on the screen. I have not found any other way to control the brightness and I have to restart to get the keyboard short cuts to work again.

General :: Unable To Adjust The Brightness Of The Netbook Screen?
Apr 19, 2010Long, sad story made short. I have a Samsung Netbook running Windows XP Home, SP3. I set it up to dual boot with Ubuntu, just so I could play around with Ubuntu. Well, Ubuntu started giving me trouble: my internet connection went south, I was unable to adjust the brightness of the Netbook screen, etc., and when I looked for troubleshooting help on the internet, it was all Greek to me as it involved working with Terminal.
I did a search for removing a partition in Windows XP and found "How to use Disk Management to configure basic disks in Windows XP" on the Microsoft and followed the instructions there.

Server :: How To Adjust EMacs Key Binding To Accommodate Screen
Jan 28, 2010I've recently started using the "screen" multiplexer and it is really handy for some cluster work I've been doing. But if I am in emacs and I press C-A to go to the beginning of the line and the C-N to go to the next line, I get shunted to the next "screen" window. I imagine there are other conflicts as well. I did some googling, but all the suggestions showed how to adjust emacs key-binding to accommodate screen. But I don't want to adjust emacs key-bindings because that is the whole reason I like emacs. I think custom "screen" key-bindings go in .screenrc. Does any emacs fans out there who have run into this problem have any .screenrc code they would be willing to share with me that worked well for them?

May 1, 2010Before 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.
View 2 Replies View RelatedOpenSUSE Install :: Can't Increase Resolution Than At Least Stretch The Screen To Full Screen?
Aug 27, 2011I 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?
