I'm not sure if I understand your request. When I upgraded, I could not set the screen resolution at all and the xorg.conf file was absent.
I wanted to set it to 1024 x 768 at 85 Hz, which is what I had before the upgrade. All I could see was 3 possible resoutions, all far higher than I could use, and disproportioned, too. i cannot remember what they were. The only available rate was 60 Hz. Also before the upgrade I had an issue with the login screen which had some other resolution and could not be set. As I said in previous comments, I did quite some re-building since the upgrade and it now works properly at the resolution and rate as above. The requested outputs are below. Thanks for all your help! I am a solid Ubuntu supporter!
