Aqua-Soft ForumsWell, I found this IBM monitor in the garbage dump in my neighborhood, and its awsome, its an IBM G78 monitor. it has a really high resolution on Ms Windows (1200X1600) but in Ubuntu its totally different, I get this lower resolution and lower resolution and refresh rate, and they all suck, I need a higher resolution, any ideas?
I need a higher resolution for my IBM monitor on Ubuntu
:confused: why were you in a garbage dump looking for a monitor...LMFAO. Right anyways, i just wanted to say that, i have no idea why you're getting a lower refresh rate and whatever
well see, I was just throwing the garbage out and I saw this two monitors, there was a beige one and the black one, I liked the black one, so I tried it out, and it had a higher resolution on windows, it replaced my 2005 monitor. but in ubuntu is worst resolution...
do you use an nVidia card? you can use nvidia-settings in the binary drivers to configure Xorg to properly use your screen in Ubuntu.
If you use ATI, then.... well you're gonna be doing some serious manual Xorg configing
