Re: [Trisquel-users] Resolution stuck at 1400 x 1050 after updates

You are one of the most unfortunate owners of an ATI GPU, which is an awful  
gpu for it requires nonfree firmware to work correctly. The libre kernel  
Jxself packages should at least give you the correct (native) resolution.  
Make sure you install and use (select in GRUB) the **latest** kernel (4.8) as  
on jxself's website.

The real solution would be for you to sell your current laptop and buy one  
with an Intel gpu (just not the latest one, skyblob skylake). Without video  
acceleration those ATI gpus are useless crap :(
