Public bug reported: My Samsung screen resolution is 1920x1080. Ubuntu 12.10 under system settings displays it only allows four options 1360x768 being the highest. My video card is a G84(GeForce8600GT). There are 4 additional drivers available the all work but don't change the resolution. The nouveau driver caused the screen to flicker evert few seconds.
I also looked in NVIDEA X Server settings but again the highest resolution is 1360x768 (it says NVIDEA Driver version: 304.4). I'm not sure which is leading - System settings/Display or NVIDEA X Server settings. The sceen interface is VGA which i have had to convert to DivX(?)with a converter plug because the card does'nt have a VGA port. Its a real shame because I have gone for it and wiped out Windows! Hooray! Any clues welcome! ** Affects: xserver-xorg-video-nv (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1078598 Title: Incorrect screen resolution of ubuntu 12.10 with VGA interface To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xserver-xorg-video-nv/+bug/1078598/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
