When following the instructions in https://www.qubes-os.org/doc/LinuxHVMTips/ ... I do get the higher resolutions. So large, in fact it is too big. There are other resolutions now available to me. But whatever I select, results in a screen that seems to have a sync problem. The video is scrambled, only the default resolution works (which is now too large). Is there a fix for this? I have tried setting HorizSync to many different values. This does result in different resolution options available in the menu... but the same problem of not being able to have a working resolution. My HVM is Lubuntu 17.04 Thanks. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "qubes-users" group.
