Folks,
I'm working on Ubuntu 7.10 (beta) on a PC which I must say is quite
nice and Dad is also working on Ubuntu 7.04 boxes and we have an issue
with resolution.
Our PCs seem to not pick up the capabilites of the monitor and lock
down the modes you can choose from Preferences, Screen Resolution
I can't find a graphical box to alter the monitor characteristics. I
can either edit the /etc/X11/xorg.conf or type "sudo dpkg-reconfigure
xserver-xorg" and it fixes the issue.
Is there a nice graphical way I can do this so that I can tell others
as this is not the easiest to tell other users...
Ian

Hi Russell.
Yes, I do have the gadget still.
Can you give me a postal address and I'll post it to you.

An Australian lawyer's tumblelog about things (some legal, most not) you
might otherwise have missed
Is the PA2728U still available?
I think it will fit my Portege 3020CT.
Thanx,
