ubuntu 11, maximum resolution is a low 1024 x 768
- by djturbojp7
I just installed ubuntu 11 and the maximum resolution that it will let me set it at is 1024 x 768. My graphics are onboard, its the intel 82845g. Trying to increase the resolution and support the video more smoothly.
UPDATE:
user1@pc1:~$ xrandr | grep maximum
