Hello,

I have the same problem as everyone else, which is I want the screen res to be 1280x800 but all the methods of editing have failed, is there any chance an Ubuntu user could paste the config file, that would be great,

Neil
 
Anyone? All you have to do is paste the contents of /etc/X11/xorg.conf file, it would be much appreciated.

Thank you,

Neil
 
in your /etc/X11/xorg.conf file, change following lines:

SubSection "Display"
Depth 24
Modes "1024x768" "800x600" "640x480"
EndSubSection

to

SubSection "Display"
Depth 24
Modes "1280x800" "1024x768" "800x600" "640x480"
EndSubSection

and restart your x-session. Of course, I'm assuming your running the x-server in 24 bit depth mode.
