1) the sudo command did not work - see screenshot attached
2) I have the nvidia drivers uninstalled now so the screen looks ok
3) should I re-install the nvidia drivers then
try the ammended command again ?
4) by log file did you mean the .conf file I just sent to you?
I will await more instructions...
I opened the .conf file with gedit just to see what was in there, that
is my copy of it not the one in use.
BTW, I have used this monitor in the past with another PC which had dual boot
RedHat &
Win ME without any problems or any need to reset each time I boot to either OS.
I'[m a newbie to Xubuntu but have had exposure to Red Hat and HP UX in the past.
