Ubuntu is not automatically setting appropriate resolution












0















I have a system with a GTX 650, and to even get pass the Ubuntu splash screen on install, I have to take out my graphics card, restart my system, and wait for Ubuntu to install.



After install, I still cannot use my graphics card as it says "Not Support!" meaning that the resolution is too low, or too high.



I have to actually take out my graphics card to use Ubuntu, which sucks. I really, really would like to use my graphics card for compatibility between Windows 10 and Ubuntu (so I don't have to keep putting in and taking out my graphics card for different OSs) and for performance.



Sinc I am normally a windows user, I have no idea how to fix my problem on Ubuntu. I tried making a bash script that runs on startup that sets my resolution, but it fails probably because I don't know how to make a bash script run on startup, even though I put the bash script in startup.



Please help!

  • Found out a way to do what I need, but sadly I have a DVI-VGA connector, which stops me from being able to use xrandr because it says BAD PARAMETER ATTRIBUTES. Hm
