Your resolution is incorrect because you have booted with the 'nomodeset' option:
ProcKernelCmdLine: BOOT_IMAGE=/boot/vmlinuz-4.15.0-43-generic root=UUID=2d93d825-1bcb-4155-aad5-cfdb5dce95ab ro quiet splash nomodeset So it is correct for the normal resolutions to be missing in that case. To fix this, 1. Remove any mention of 'nomodeset' from /etc/default/grub and then run: sudo update-grub 2. Reboot, but as soon as you see the purple screen appear tap Esc and work through the menus to ensure you are not booting in recovery mode. 3. If the problem still happens after that then please attach output from this command: cat /proc/cmdline ** Changed in: xorg (Ubuntu) Status: New => Invalid ** Package changed: xorg (Ubuntu) => ubuntu -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to xorg in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1810630 Title: Resolution Incorrect Status in Ubuntu: Invalid Bug description: Despite updating drivers for video through xorg, display cannot change from 1024x768.
