@MikeyP I think the fact you're changing to ATI from nVidia is solving
your problem, the DVI/VGA difficulties are just a red herring, because
graphics cards simply transmit the VGA over these DVI adaptors.
** Description changed:
My Samsung screen resolution is 1920x1080. Ubuntu 12.10 under
I have decided to workaround the problem. I installed my old ATI Radeon
card from my old (dead) PC. Then I installed the Zorin 6.1 distribution.
I now have the correct screen resolution and full control of the screen
i.e. in Displays you can see the make manufacturer of the screen and
is switches
Same issue also: maximum resolution available is 1024x768 and should get
1080. Graphics card is a NVIDIA GT520. I have tried all version of the
driver offered in software sources with the same results. The default
nouveau drivers works at the expected 1080 resolution as do the NVIDIA
drivers on
same issue: max size for me is 1280x1024 Laptop. Interestingly, the
first time I booted 12.10 the screen was fine, but every subsequent time
it's been punched in.
