Settings xorg.conf to be used with VESA driver?
- by Fernando Costa
I have an brand new installation of Ubuntu 9.10 (karmic version) where everything is fine except the video resolution. In Ubuntu 9.10, the file xorg.conf is empty by default.
I'm using an onboard video card, and Ubuntu can not find the right resolution for me. It always uses 800x600, but I need at least 1024x768. Also, my monitor is listed as Unknown Type.
Ubuntu did find the right resolution when I changed the monitor to a Samsung monitor.
By the way what are the generic settings to put inside xorg.conf?
What is the settings for Refresh Rate, for example, I got a resolution of 1280x800, but the Refresh Rate generally between 60 ~ 80 htz is ZERO on my resolution..
In 1024 resolution my Refresh Rate is 75 htz..
What is going on with my resolution and how to modify the Refresh Rate??
Many Thanks!
