GreatBunzinni, could you try "sudo dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xserver-xorg", select your video driver, select resolution 1280x800, and then restart?
This worked for me. I had to select the SiS driver instead of "VESA" which it was defaulted to. Is this a mis-detection of the card? ** Changed in: xserver-xorg-video-vga (Ubuntu) Sourcepackagename: xserver-xorg-video-vga => xorg -- 1280x800 resolution isn't detected https://launchpad.net/bugs/49827 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
