During the installation,a set up manager(i do not remember the name exactly, i guess it is attribute ) asked for the graphics card driver details which is VIA. But it detected the monitor as Samsung SyncMaster(by default) and the i could not change the resolution. It is fixed at 640X480. I tried changing the resolution in the xorg.conf in the /etc/X11 directory. I also tried changing the monitor options in Display under System Tools. Monitor options could be changed but Resolution could not be. Can anybody help? Thanks in advance, Vaithy.
