Screen Resolution Settings Dell 8600 WUXGA
Thursday, March 17th, 2005So I was fiddling around a little bit this morning and decided to try, out of curiousity, to find anything that helped address a problem I’ve had with my Dell 8600 running under Ubuntu/Gnome. The issue was basically one of properly displaying screen resolution. My display is capable of 1920×1200. Initially when I would apply this setting the screen would actually spill off of the viewable range, so I had to revert to 1600×1200 which resulted in a horizontal stretching effect of the *stuff* on screen. So I did a little searching this morning and stumbled across the solution that seems to be working great and I had to make a record of it somewhere.
