Why doesn't my graphic card support 1280*1024?
- by Allwar
Hi, I have an external monitor which is an 20" 1280*1024. In windows 7 it works fine with that resolution but in ubuntu it can't.
Example: In windows I connect it and activates it, done. In ubuntu I connect and the only resolution that is available is the ones my laptop screen support, 12" 1366*768.
My laptop is an asus 1201n.
If I force it to use 1280*1024 both screen crashes and i have to force a reboot. what should I do?
