Okay, I go to it a bit sooner than I thought. My ViewSonic GS790 still was only able to display in 1400x1050 even with the Lucid Live CD. Now something happened that has happened before and that is when I boot back into Hardy the display was in 1600x1200. This is always short lived however and the next time I boot it will revert back to 1400x1050.
This seems to indicate that maybe the Live CD set the hardware in a state that lets it work for a while at 1600x1200, but after rebooting again the hardware falls back to the setting that only lets the monitor display at the lower res. I could be way off on this, but maybe there is germ is truth it it. ~Carl On Fri, May 21, 2010 at 2:06 PM, Carl Nobile <carl.nob...@gmail.com> wrote: > I'm still here.
