my moniter is actually a small tv and does in fact support 1080p although currently uibuntu says that the highest i can go up to is 1360x768. created a mode named 1080p that i can see when using command "xrandr" that does in fact have the correct resolution although im not sure if im just doing some thing stupid cuz this is my first real install not on a vm.
what ive done so far:
1: cvt 1920 1080 60
2: xrandr --newmode "1080p" (I copied the modeline) produced by cvt i can now see my mode when i use xrandr
3: xrandr --addmode Screen 0 1080p
OUTPUT: xrandr: unrecognized option '1080p'

The problem is with your last command.
- Detect you monitor name with
xrandr | grep " connected " | awk '{ print$1 }'and replace it for theScreenoption. - Don't use
0- you don't need that.
So the command would look like this:
xrandr --addmode MonitorName 1080p
