Hi, I installed 7.8 amd64 from iso. I would like to have 1920x1080 or 1360x768 monitor resolution, but the max allowed is 1024x768. These modes are found by X, but disabled (see log below).
How can I force the system to use a higher resolution? I am using the vesa driver. --- Monitor - Samsung C27F396FHN (1920x1080) 60Hz refresh rate.
