TriesteHello, I just installed 16.04 and all seems fine, except in screen preferences, I can't find the option for 1366x768, which is my monitor's native resolution - what gives?13:15
hateballTrieste: what GPU/driver are you using?13:16
Triestehateball: how do I tell? It's an Acer netbook, so I assume it's an integrated Intel gpu13:17
hateballTrieste: "lspci -k", check the VGA section13:18
hateballTrieste: and if you run "xrandr" is 1366 listed at all?13:18
Triestehateball: says "VGA Compatible controller: Intel Corporation...Integrated Graphics Controller...Kernel modules: i915"13:21
Triesteand no, it isn't hateball13:21
hateballTrieste: what is the exact model? "sudo dmidecode |grep Product" should be helpful13:22
hateballFor googling purposes :)13:22
Triestehateball: AOD25513:23
hateballTrieste: I dont have a lubuntu machine atm, but do you have any checkbox for "show unsupported modes" or something?13:25
hateballin the resolution box13:26
Triesteunfortunately not13:26
Triestebut I just realized that I forgot to mention I'm running of the netbook's VGA port13:26
Triestewhile the display is still there, except it's broken to pieces, but still shows up13:27
hateballah13:27
hateballwell, it can be either a limitation of the VGA output, or simply that it cant read the monitors EDID13:28
Triesteright, yeah13:29
hateballTrieste: check the second post here for info how to force a custom resolution http://askubuntu.com/questions/377937/how-to-set-a-custom-resolution13:29
hateballTrieste: no sudo needed13:29
TriesteI'm wondering maybe whether setting the VGA mode directly would work13:29
Triesteright :)13:29
