To: [email protected] Date: Friday, February 19, 2010, 8:35 AM Good Morning, I did what you suggested (and thanks for the step-by-step instructions). Unfortunately, no drivers showed-up. The program did search and when it stopped working, the list was blank. --- On Thu, 2/18/10, Draycen DeCator <[email protected]> wrote: From: Draycen DeCator <[email protected]> Subject: [Bug 522820] Re: On boot up, I get a message that it has to use low-res and I can't change a thing on the display settings (I'm on an HP touchsmart). To: [email protected] Date: Thursday, February 18, 2010, 6:06 PM Thank you for the update. Can you please login to Ubuntu and see if you have the graphics driver installed? In order to do this, you should be able to go System -> Administration -> Hardware Drivers. This will search for available proprietary drivers for your system. Once the search is done, you will hopefully see a list of several graphics drivers. Any of the drivers with a green dot next to them are active. If one is active, please make sure it is the "Recommended" version (Ubuntu will tell you which is recommended). If none are active, then please find the "Recommended" driver and activate it by selecting the driver, then clicking the "Activate" button at the bottom. If no drivers show up, then we will need to take a different approach. Please let us know how it goes.
