Increase laptop screen resolution over 1024x768 on HP Compaq Presario v3000


How to make my maximum screen resolution to be detected by Ubuntu?Screen resolution stuck at 1024x768I can't view my laptop on TVUnable to change the refresh rate to 60hz with xrandrChange resolution on Lenovo B590 to 1600x900, Ubuntu 12.04LTS permenently?How do I get other resolution option other than default one in full screen?Dual Monitor issue in Ubuntu 14.04 ATImonitor resolution reseted after reboot (one monitor)Stuck at 800x600 display resolution Ubuntu 14Only a part of my screen is used as the display. Rest is just blackIncorrect monitor size acknownlegement ubuntu 16.04













0















Just installed Ubuntu 12.04.
The default display driver has fixed my resolution to 1024x768. The only other option I see for selection is 800x600.
Is there a way to increase my resolution to see 1280x800 as many sites recommend? My desktop is not using the full screen. It's sticking to the left side. Have about 4 inches of dark unused area to my right.



Have been trying to configure this since 3 days. No progress made so far :-(



As per some of the suggestions in the comments, I tried the following steps.



Step 1: cvt 1280 800
Output:


# 1280x800 59.81 Hz (CVT 1.02MA) hsync: 49.70 kHz; pclk: 83.50 MHzModeline "1280x800_60.00" 83.50 1280 1352 1480 1680 800 803 809 831 -hsync +vsync



Step 2: xrandr --newmode "1280x800_60.00"   83.50  1280 1352 1480 1680  800 803 809 831 -hsync +vsync

Step 3: xrandr --verbose --addmode LVDS1 1280x800_60.0
Output:
X Error of failed request: BadMatch (invalid parameter attributes)
Major opcode of failed request: 149 (RANDR)
Minor opcode of failed request: 18 (RRAddOutputMode)
Serial number of failed request: 27
Current serial number in output stream: 28


Is this due to refresh rate? My xrandr gives the following output now:



Screen 0: minimum 320 x 200, current 1024 x 768, maximum 4096 x 4096

ONLY If installing drivers for your GPU doesnt help. [Should be at Software & Updates >> additional drivers]
Try looking here : How to make my maximum screen resolution to be detected by Ubuntu? Look at the answer provided by Venki
I had the same problem and that helped me. But on the first command instead of :



cvt 2048 1536


I used:



gtf 1280 1024 60


gtf [horizontal res] [vertical res] [refresh rate]



If you get odd looking fonts after following the linked post, use :



sudo add-apt-repository ppa:no1wantdthisname/ppa
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get upgrade
sudo apt-get install fontconfig-infinality


Not sure if that package above will help but it did help me.
If it doesnt you can uninstall it by:
sudo apt-get remove --purge fontconfig-infinality
sudo ppa-purge ppa:no1wantdthisname/ppa

12.04 additional drivers should offer an Nvidia driver for your geforce 6150 gpu, The one to use is current, driver 304.117. Then you can use the "Nvidia X server settings" program to adjust the resolution to 1280x800. In 14.04, the drivers are found under the "software and updates" program's 4 tab.

  • Hmm dude I think you have a typo. Looking at your post I see: --newmode "1280x800_60.00" but when you did --addmode you typed 1280x800_60.0 missing a 0 , I hope that's the problem. Sorry it took me this long to reply ;s

12.04 additional drivers should offer an Nvidia driver for your geforce 6150 gpu, The one to use is current, driver 304.117. Then you can use the "Nvidia X server settings" program to adjust the resolution to 1280x800. In 14.04, the drivers are found under the "software and updates" program's 4 tab.
