Display Resolution Problem on Toshiba Sat L830
Guys, I'm new to Linux & non-technical. After looking into alternatives to
MicroNSF/Windoze I decided on Trisquel on principle. I fully realise that,
based on popular Ubuntu, its probably already back-doored.
I managed to get my head around Virtual Box & ran Trisquel in it for a few
months to familiarise myself & only fully installed recently. I had no idea
certain things might not work with a full install.
Wireless is now ok. I have a 13” Toshiba Sat L830, with 16:9 screen, which
Trisq can't seem to connect to. The default 4:3 is unworkable – everything
elongated.
Also, Brightness settings work, but screen is not as bright, on max setting,
as before.
Is there an easy way around this?
Alternatively, if the solution is very technical, could someone detail the
process for me so, if stuck, I could at least take the info to a computer
shop & get it done . . .
Any help appreciated.
I tried Linux Mint with no problems + screen was brighter, however, I would
much prefer to use FSF endorsed Trisquel & support those I consider to be
good guys.
Would be great if Trisquel could get to the point where it worked more
seemlessly out of the box for non-technical users like myself. This would
mean a much greater uptake, more donations and, ultimately, far more demand
for non-compromised hardware.
