On an intel motherboard (chipset 845G) and Pentium Celeron. An updated version of Kubuntu 6.10. I follow the ubuntuguide about resolution with intel graphic chipset (1.11.10, address: http://ubuntuguide.org/wiki/Ubuntu_Edgy#How_to_Correct_the_Graphics_Resolution_.28Intel.29)
The howto given in ubuntuguide doesn't have any effect. The resolution stay blocked on 1280 1024 (my goal is to have a 1680 1050 one). Same result when I try to add the "sudo nano 915resolution 5a 1680 1050 24" in the /etc/rc.local file (last step of the procedure). The new resolution is effectively recorded in /etc/X11/xorg.local. I try to modify the /etc/default/915resolution (after I erase the modification of /etc/rc.conf), giving the same arguments: 5a, 1680, 1050 and 24 (this manipulation is recommended in another howto). But at this moment, the screen become black when the session manager start and also when the session is initiated (I can type the user name and password, the session start, I hear the sound of beginning, but I don't see anything). Does somebody help? Thanks. ** Attachment added: "rc.local - 915resolution - xorg.conf" http://librarian.launchpad.net/5423438/rc.local%20-%20915resolution%20-%20xorg.conf -- driver fails to read BIOS video mode 1400x1050 on Toshiba M400 https://launchpad.net/bugs/67859 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
