Re: [Trisquel-users] Monitor resolution (complete beginner)

Hmmm...
Magic Banana: I tried following your instructions (and thank you for making  
them so simple).  The /etc/X11/xorg.conf was indeed blank, so I copied your  
instructions across, saved the file and restarted the system. It doesn't seem  
to have made any difference - the choice of resolutions in the Prefences /  
Monitors GUI is still the basic range from 640x480 to 1024x768.  I also  
noticed that I can't enable any desktop effects (I was curious) which makes  
me now think it's a combination of graphics card drivers and monitor  
drivers...  Maybe I should have waited to try Trisquel on a less awkward  
system ;)
