Have Debian Lenny stable and Kubuntu on amd64 box. The kubuntu will give 1360x768 resolution on the tv being used as a monitor, the tv's native resolution, but the Lenny will only give 12??x768.
Tried using the kubuntu xorg.conf file for lenny. But it did not work. Using Nvidia's up to date proprietary drivers on Lenny, think I am for kubuntu but not entirely sure.
How get Lenny to use 1360x768? Thanks.
Said xorg.conf that works on Kubuntu:
