I have a DELL U2410 monitor connected to a Compaq 100B desktop equipped with an integrated AMD/ATI graphics card (AMD E-350). The installed O/S is Ubuntu 10.04 LTS.
The computer is connected to the monitor via the DVI connection.
The problem is that I cannot set the desktop resolution to the native 1920×1200. The maximum allowed resolution is 1600×1200.
Doing some research I found about the xrandr
utility. Unfortunately, when trying to use it I cannot configure it to the required resolution. First, it does not report the output name (which supposed to be DVI-0
), saying default
instead. Without it I cannot use the --fb
option.
The EDID utility seems to identify the monitor well. Here’s the output from get-edid
:
