Something to try... *On one of my LL boxes I had to add the resolution...
I believe there is an X11 file that can be modified to support other resolutions - I'd have to check that system (which is not by me) for the correct additions..
Another way I was able to set the resolution (forcing it to specific)
Was to modify grub.. /etc/default/grub
*Make a back up just in case* If using file manager(Thunar) copy & paste or terminal..
Edit grub file - Thunar=right click open as admin Terminal=vi/nano preferred editor...
Look for the line (uncomment if necessary)
or if commented Modify to preferred:
Save file then in terminal
I'll double check the X11 settings when I get home this eve..
