Ok so I think I was wrong on the last post... the relevant package seems to be 'screen-resolution-extra' .... Don't take my word on this, I am just trying to get to the bottom of this problem...
The Jaunty source: $ apt-get source screen-resolution-extra The Ubuntu trunk: $ bzr get http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~albertomilone/screen-resolution-extra/main Please correct me if I am wrong.
