Why can Kubuntu only see 800x600 while Windows saw higher resolutions?
It looks that you have to be a computer programmer to change the resolution.
ItÅ› defently no great future from Linux that its so diffucult to change a resolution!
I think that i trow Kubutu away if its so difficult to change a simple resolution from a videocard.
If someone have tips that stood not on google that please tell me how i can better resolotions than the stupid 800x600.

Hi
Dennis,
Â*
I have
K10.04 seeing a 21" 1920x1080 screen and several other (lesser)
resolutions.Â* You shouldn't have to do anything, it should just detect it,
but there is screen resolution setting programme under system setup (I think
it's called that, I don't have my PC set to English atÂ*the
moment).
Â*
If you
don't have the right driver or patches, it may not work.
Â*
I had
a new Gigabyte motherboard with K10.04 LTS and because the hardware was newer
than the operating system it didn't detect all the settings.
Â*
If
that is your problem, then upgrade your Kubuntu to 11.04 or 11.10 and it should
detect everything.
Â*
Good
luck.
Â*
Regards
Â*
Steve

Hello Buzzmabndt,
Â*
It's aÂ*AsusÂ*Ati Radeon 9250 AGP.
The support from the Linux distos is very sad, that's why many WindowsÂ*users doesn't take the step to the betterÂ*OS!
I try 1 thing more.....

Not that I think I can help, but I see no one asking some basic questions,
which might be helpful:

- Which Kubuntu version are you using?
- Which KDE version are you using?
- How do you try to change the resolution? System Settings/Hardware/Display
and Monitor/Size and Orientation? What does it say there?
- Do you use the open source radeon driver or the proprietary?
- What does /var/log/Xorg.0.log say? (in pastebin please, not in mail). I use
the open source radeon driver and it says it supports among other chipsets:
"ATI Radeon 9250 5960 (AGP)".

Dennis,

You probably need the ATI drivers to be installed.* The easiest way is to use "jockey".* Run "sudo jockey-kde"* at a sheel prompt and follow the instructions to get your ATI drivers installed.
