[SOLVED] Screen resolution too small

[jeah]

Finally, my new Kubuntu is working But - screen resolution is too small. In system settings I can choose only 1024x768 and 800x600, but I want it to be 1280x800. In previous versions I always had option for 1280x800... Any suggestions?
Thanks!

Maybe these pages will help:

> X Config

Today's X rarely requires manual configuration. X now automatically configures itself with reasonable defaults. Both GNOME and KDE provide GUI utilities for customizing settings beyond these defaults if you like.

However, sometimes you need to muck with the configuration manually, beyond what these tools allow...

Re: Screen resolution too small

I don't know, these things suggested in the links didn't work or I couldn't handle them..

BUT I found a solution anyway - http://www.kubuntu.org/doc/7.10/hardware/C/video.html.
I used the 195resolution application -> changed my resolution to 1280x800.
Then added "xrandr --output default --mode 1280x800" to /etc/kde4/kdm/Xsetup.
Then restarted KDE and my resolution is OK!

Re: [SOLVED] Screen resolution too small

Same problem, but I cannot find 915resolution in the official packages.
Where did you find it? Is it a supported tool?

thanks in advance
