Nvidia Driver Issue – No Support for 1280×1024 Resolution in Ubuntu 10.04

10.04graphicsnvidia

EDIT:
I think the problem is in the NVIDIA x server, that doesn't support an RGB screen from 1990. The screen was the best of them all when it was released.

This a strange thing! In windows the EDID must work because 1280*1024 is used as max resolution, but in ubuntu those stuff aren't being received, so how do I tell ubuntu/nivida to find those EDID stuff?

Hi, I have an external monitor which is an 20" 1280*1024. In windows 7 it works fine with that resolution but in ubuntu it can't.

The screens model name is IntelliColor Display/20 and the name of the company is "radius".recived
Well, twin view is working but the only maximum resolution is 1024*768.
I'm using nividas x server program. If I force it to use 1280*1024 it all crashes and I have to force a reboot.

This must HELP

Best Answer

You can try disper: disper on launchpad It's a command line tool for switching between internal and external displays (You can't use Xrandr with NVIDIA-Drivers. NVIDIA doesn't support it)

Install disper and try disper -l
