Wrong Screen resolution - lost use of monitor even on rebooting
#11
Sorry I missed the xrandr didnt work and got busy this weekend..

I did some looking this may help..
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/X/Config/Resolution

Specifically
Resetting an out-of-range resolution
If you set a resolution inappropriate for your monitor in the Screen Resolution GUI tool, you can reset it from a terminal by running

Code:
rm ~/.config/monitors.xml

You'll want to try this from a TTY
Instead of removing you could change it to a backup, just to be safe...
Code:
mv ~/.config/monitors.xml ~/.config/monitors.xml.BAK
