I installed Ubuntu and then I installed the KDE desktop afterwards through the command line using aptitude. I set the Gnome desktop at 1024X768 at 60hertz. That was fine. When I went into the KDE session. the resolution was so high it was like looking at the screen from outer space. My monitor is a Viewsonic GS815--vid card is an Nvidia TNT2 16mgs. [450mhz PII, 256mgs Ram, 9GB hard drive--an older Compaq AP200 workstation].
I tried to reset it in KDE to the same resolution as I had in Gnome through the GUI, and it split the screen in half horizontally. I can't get to the kicker menu at ALL, and I don't know how I am going to bail myself out of this. Maybe I could uninstall KDE--it is that bad. I am not sure how to do that though. Gnome is fine...KDE is a mess. I wish I had had a warning about this. I wish I could right click and get to the display resolution that way to reset it. KDE is broken now. -- No GUI way to change screen resolution in Kubuntu https://launchpad.net/bugs/48777 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
