  • How do I change the screen resolution using Ubuntu command line?

    4 answers




I have a dual monitor setup. 2nd monitor has a VGA connection. Resolution 1366x768 not found in display settings or randr. How do I add resolution 1366x768 to output. I have tried this:



VGA-0 connected primary 1024x768+0+190 (normal left inverted right x axis y axis) 0mm x 0mm
1024x768 60.0*
800x600 60.3 56.2
848x480 60.0
640x480 59.9


Did xrandr -s 1366x768:



Size 1366x768 not found in available modes


And xrandr --output vga-0 --mode 1366x768:



warning: output vga-0 not found; ignoring

http://ubuntuhandbook.org/index.php/2017/04/custom-screen-resolution-ubuntu-desktop/



If you want to follow the part




IMPORTANT: To make Ubuntu remember the new created screen resolution
