I'm not sure if this is the right category to ask for help but here it goes:I have a laptop with ubuntu 10.04x64 and i have bought recently a samsung xl2370 which has a max resolution of 1080p but the maximum resolution my laptop recognizes is 1440x900 is there any way to solve this?
View 3 RepliesI have a serious problem: I just installed Ubuntu 10.04 on my computer which has a Hanspree HF257 25-inch monitor with a native resolution of 19201080. I have an NVIDIA GeForce 9400GT graphics card, and before I installed the proprietary NVIDIA drivers, the screen resolution was fine, but after I installed the recommended drivers, the screen resolution went way down after restart!
The monitor is recognized only as a "CRT-1 (CRT-1 on GPU-0)″ under the NVIDIA X-Server settings. The highest resolution I can adjust it to is 1360768. I have no idea what to do, but I'm sure there's a fix for this, right?
We have the following school project that I can't seems to make correctly:We need to make a whole subnet communicate with the internet through another subnet's gateway using iptables, with a difficulty option, only 1 NIC.I know its seems complicated, but it's not that bad. Please keep reading and let me explain.Let's say we have subnet (number 1) = 10.1.2.0/24, gateway 10.1.2.1.I have another subnet (number 2)= 192.168.1.0/24, gateway192.168.1.1Subnet 1's (10.1.2.1) gateway doesnt have a WAN connection.Subnet 2's (192.168.1.1) does.Which means all 192.168.1.XXX can communicate with internet, while all 10.1.2.XXX cannot.Not, the goal of the project is to give 10.1.2.1 a possibility to NAT packet comming fomr it's subnet to 192.168.3.1, so the subnet 10.1.2.XX will have access to the internet.
Now, since 10.1.2.1 (the gateway) only have 1 NIC, we make it hold virtual IPs.eth0:0 = 192.168.1.35 (static)eth0:1 = 10.1.2.1 (static, begin the 10.1.2.0/24 gateway)The routes are OK and I can ping correctly on both subnet.I can even ping the internet from eth0:0 !! (192.168.1.35)I tought using the following iptables command from the 10.1.2.1's machine would do the trick:iptables -t nat -A POSTROUTING -s 10.1.2.0/24 -j SNAT --to-source 192.168.1.35But for some reason, 192.168.1.1 doesnt even receive any packet from it's log, except when it's not NATed (when it comes directly from 192.168.1.35), which let me think the iptables command above doesnt work correctly.
first time poster after having read gobs of threads trying to find the answer to my issue here. I'll try to post as much information as I can, and then will supply whatever else is inevitably left out and deemed necessary. I'm running 10.10 on a Gateway MX3701 laptop which has an ATI Radeon Xpress 200M graphics controller (lspci | grep VGA) and am hooking it up to my Samsung P2770HD monitor/TV via VGA (VGA-0 port if that's important).
So, the issue: In resurrecting my old laptop by killing XP and putting on Ubuntu, I found I needed a VGA cable to connect to my monitor. Borrowed a friend's to get my setup going, and all was well in 1920x1080 with all the other monitor settings working well too (laptop monitor off, etc.. When my new VGA cable (cheap from Amazon) arrived and I shutdown, made new connection, and rebooted, my monitor was no longer recognized (it was before) and I am limited to weak sauce resolutions meant for my blinding grandmother.
So I've tried to find similar issues on here and have struggled to do so. I did find one thread that was similar, but the issue was never resolved.
Ok so I just installed Debian 7.5 on my laptop and encountered several problems.
First off was the problem with GNOME 3, GNOME 3 failed to load.
Second problem was that the system does not recognize an external monitor via hdmi. Via VGA I do not know do not have a cable to try it out.
Third problem was that my wireless was no recognized.

Just installed 11.04 on a box that it is on a kvm switch. As long as the switch is connecting the monitor to the booting Ubuntu box, the resolution of the monitor is detected OK. However, if for some reason I am working on a different box and the KVM switch is routing K V and M inputs to the other box, then Ubuntu defaults to what seems a botched VGA setting (i.e. it chops off top and left sections of the display).While in this "VGA" mode if I log out and log in, it re-detects the resolution ok.Is there any way to force Ubuntu to use a specific resolution no matter what? In this way, if I am working on a different box while waiting for Ubuntu to load, when I switch the resolution will be OK.I tried the only thing I can think of and this is to set the "good" resolution as "default" for "all" monitors, but it has no effect.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI was playing around with the NVidia settings control panel today and I saw that its Resolution dropdown was giving me options for
1680*1050
1920*1080
My monitor supports up to 1440*900. When I selected one of the higher resolutions, it didn't look very sharp, and the text was somewhat fuzzy and lacked clarity. Was this rendering being done by the graphics card but 'compressed' by the monitor?
The status said 'switched to metamode'. I tried searching but found nothing - what exactly does MetaMode mean? I'm more interested in understanding what was happening, only experimenting with the higher resolutions. What monitor and resolution do you have?

I have been using Ubuntu for a couple of years and always at the 1024 768 screen resolution.
I just finished installing version 10.04. It defaulted to 1280 1024.
I much prefer the 1024 768 because it is better for my older eyes, but when I attempt to change, the screen goes black for a minute and then stays at 1280 1024.
Since earlier versions of Ubuntu did it, this should also, but..
I just switched monitors to a Viewsonic VX2025 and I am unable to get beyond 1280 x 1024 using the nvidia x server settings. My graphics card is a GeForce 5200. These are connected with a DVI plug. I would like to be able to set my resolution to 1920 x 1080. (Also, the card and monitor worked at 1920 x 1080 in a previous windows machine.)
I have done a fair bit of searching and it appears that my issue is either the x configuration file or EDID. After 2 days of working with this it's gotten confusing to say the least. So, I'm looking to see if others have had a similar problem and how to solve it. I have not altered an x config file before, so not exactly sure of where to begin.
The image on my external monitor is blurry. the resolution is right, but the Monitors menu shows the monitor to be a 20" while it is actually a 19". So this may be a hint. I would like to know how to adjust the monitor size (if possible). How can this be done? I am running 10.4 on a dell precision 4400, connecting with the monitor via VGA.
View 2 Replies View RelatedSometimes, randomly, when turning on my Ubuntu laptop (HP 6730b, Ubuntu 10.04) I get a wrong monitor setting (much lower resolution than normal) and it is not possible to set it correctly because the menu buttons are wrongly placed and some are not present (probably there is not enough room for them) I have no other way than to restart the system to get the right resolution. Can someone tell me this inexplicable (to me) behaviour? Of course I didn't change anything in monitor settings...

I haven't had problems with this in previous versions of ubuntu. I've tried all the nvidia driver versions in the repository, as well as the latest from nvidia itself and they all do the same thing.
I've just bought a new monitor - Viewsonic VA2213w and am trying to set it up with Lucid. The resolution required is 1920x1080 @ 60Hz. I have an NVidia GTS250 with the proprietary driver v195.36.24 installed. I can set the right resolution in the nvidia-settings app, but it will not survive a restart. X always reverts to 1024x768. I have manually edited xorg.conf now to try to force the mode. The GDM login screen displays at the correct resolution, but on logging in X changes the resolution. Xorg.0.log shows the resolution being correctly set to 1920x1080 initially, then right at the end for some reason it is reset to 1024x768.
