Hi,
I've installed Trisquel 3.5 on a machine that's running an Nvidia graphics card (think it's an FX5300!?), but the default resolution was 800x600 when the correct one is 1366x768. When I was looking in xorg.conf for ideas, I noticed it was actually called xorg.conf.vesa - there is no actual xorg.conf. Anyway, I've tried editing the xorg.conf.vesa file by adding 'nv' as the graphics driver to use (I checked, it is installed) but that didn't work. So, I tried downloading and installing the nouveau driver - I know it's experimental - and then edited xorg.conf again, but that didn't work either. I've even tried overwriting xorg.conf.vesa with a normal xorg.conf but that didn't work either. This seems like a lot of hoops to jump through just to get your screen looking OK - every other distro I've tried has managed it from the get-go. Can anyone offer any tips on how to get the correct resolution in trisquel without resorting to a non-free driver?
Thanks in advance.
