Now I cannot run a display resolution over 1280 x 1024 at 5:3 (it thinks my 23 inch monitor is a Laptop screen). I have checked for drivers and it finds none. MyUnity will not let me adjust the size of my launcher or icons which are both comparable to a resolution of 800 x 600. Also potentially unrelated, but occured after update my clock time zone says New York (proper zone) but it is reading 2:13 AM and I am reporting this at 9:13 PM. The whole experience is a head scratcher for me. --- .tmp.unity.support.test.0: ApportVersion: 2.0.1-0ubuntu17.1 Architecture: amd64 CompizPlugins: [core,composite,opengl,compiztoolbox,decor,vpswitch,snap,mousepoll,resize,place,move,wall,grid,regex,imgpng,session,gnomecompat,animation,fade,unitymtgrabhandles,workarounds,scale,expo,ezoom,unityshell] CompositorRunning: None CurrentDmesg: [ 16.856506] ADDRCONF(NETDEV_CHANGE): eth0: link becomes ready [ 18.626856] usblp0: removed [ 18.634845] usblp0: USB Bidirectional printer dev 3 if 1 alt 0 proto 2 vid 0x04B8 pid 0x0856 [ 27.558311] eth0: no IPv6 routers present DistUpgraded: Fresh install DistroCodename: precise DistroRelease: Ubuntu 12.04 DistroVariant: ubuntu ExtraDebuggingInterest: Yes, whatever it takes to get this fixed in Ubuntu GraphicsCard: Intel Corporation 2nd Generation Core Processor Family Integrated Graphics Controller [8086:0102] (rev 09) (prog-if 00 [VGA controller]) Subsystem: Dell Device [1028:04ed] InstallationMedia: Ubuntu 12.04 LTS "Precise Pangolin" - Beta amd64 (20120328) MachineType: Dell Inc.
