** Description changed:
Hello,
I am having an issue with my screen resolution of 1920x1080. I am using a
Vizio 42 inch TV which worked fine with the HDMI connection from the computer
to the TV. Every time I boot the computer up I have to go into terminal and
type " xrandr -s 1920x1080 "
One of the first things I did was go to the System Settings > Software &
Updates > Additional Drivers and then select Nividia 304.131
(proprietary,tested). I do this since when Nouveau was first introduced, it
never worked with my graphics chipset which is a Nividia 7050. Yes, the
chipset is old but worked fine until 16.04.
I spent the weekend trying all suggestions that I could find via the search
engines along with the help of a few folks on the #ubuntu IRC. Three days
later, still no luck and still having to type the xrandr line in the terminal.
I even tried adding the xrandr line in /etc/lightdm/lightdm.conf, That was a
disaster at bootup. luckily I was able to get to the terminal and Nano edit
the file and reboot.
In addition, probably unrelated to this issue, I have also noticed when
running any streaming video, now it is almost like watching a slide show.
Nothing has changed Internet connection or hardware since the install of 16.04.
Even typing this is lagged by 1 to 3 seconds per character typed. Same issue
in Firefox or Chrome. But sorry, I digress. This can be looked at in another
post, forum or possible bug.
The main issue is that Ubuntu 16.04 does not save and or reads the saved
settings of 1920x1080 with out the later use via the terminal using xrandr. I
did take notice that when booting into the main desktop the mouse pointer is
small as if in 1920x1080 but then changes to a larger pointer then the
resolution is then 1280x720 which seems to what 16.04 falls back to.
The TV reports the proper information under xrandr.

This will be the only information I will post this way since it was quite
short. I will attach my latest xorg.conf file and also post the pastebin URL
to it if the attachment fails.
