Trieste | Hello, 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 |
---|---|---|
hateball | Trieste: what GPU/driver are you using? | 13:16 |
Trieste | hateball: how do I tell? It's an Acer netbook, so I assume it's an integrated Intel gpu | 13:17 |
hateball | Trieste: "lspci -k", check the VGA section | 13:18 |
hateball | Trieste: and if you run "xrandr" is 1366 listed at all? | 13:18 |
Trieste | hateball: says "VGA Compatible controller: Intel Corporation...Integrated Graphics Controller...Kernel modules: i915" | 13:21 |
Trieste | and no, it isn't hateball | 13:21 |
hateball | Trieste: what is the exact model? "sudo dmidecode |grep Product" should be helpful | 13:22 |
hateball | For googling purposes :) | 13:22 |
Trieste | hateball: AOD255 | 13:23 |
hateball | Trieste: I dont have a lubuntu machine atm, but do you have any checkbox for "show unsupported modes" or something? | 13:25 |
hateball | in the resolution box | 13:26 |
Trieste | unfortunately not | 13:26 |
Trieste | but I just realized that I forgot to mention I'm running of the netbook's VGA port | 13:26 |
Trieste | while the display is still there, except it's broken to pieces, but still shows up | 13:27 |
hateball | ah | 13:27 |
hateball | well, it can be either a limitation of the VGA output, or simply that it cant read the monitors EDID | 13:28 |
Trieste | right, yeah | 13:29 |
hateball | Trieste: check the second post here for info how to force a custom resolution http://askubuntu.com/questions/377937/how-to-set-a-custom-resolution | 13:29 |
hateball | Trieste: no sudo needed | 13:29 |
Trieste | I'm wondering maybe whether setting the VGA mode directly would work | 13:29 |
Trieste | right :) | 13:29 |

capum321 | hello, could I update grub (did afterwards installed a windows os) from any live distro or it should be a lubuntu live distro towards my lubuntu hdd partition? | 16:40 |
genii | Any debian-based live distro with a grub reinstall option should be fine ( GRUB2 ) | 16:42 |
capum321 | thanks genii | 17:12 |
