How to change resolution in LXDE

lxde

I installed yesterday the 14.04 distribution of Lubuntu and the default resolution is very low.

xrandr output:

Screen 0: minimum 320 x 200, current 1366 x 768, maximum 8192 x 8192
VGA-0 connected 1366x768+0+0 (normal left inverted right x axis y axis) 410mm x 230mm 
    1366x768 59.8*+ 
    1360x768 60.0 
    1280x720 60.0 
    1024x768 75.1 70.1 60.0 
    832x624 74.6 
    800x600 72.2 75.0 60.3 56.2 
    640x480 75.0 72.8 66.7 60.0 
    720x400 70.1      
    640x400 70.0

The easiest way is to use lxrandr -- if it didn't install automatically, go to a terminal and install it:

    $ sudo apt-get install lxrandr

Once it's installed, in Lubuntu you will find it under

Preferences --> Monitor Settings
