I have recently installed ubuntu in dual boot with windows 10 and everything was working, until I switched on the computer and ubuntu was 1024x768 instead of 1920x1080 and only one monitor was connected. How can I fix this?

As expected, Nvidia drivers have reduced my customizations. I can't login to Unity 3D session. I can't find any content to help me to uninstall the driver and I don't know what to do as I have never uninstalled them before.

Is there a way to programmatically change the screen resolution or enable/disable multiple monitors in Windows XP?  For example to change from 1024x768 with one monitor to 1280x104 on two monitors?  I would be most interested in a win32 function to do this but anything that can be tied to a windows shortcut would suffice.

I am new to Ubuntu. I have installed Ubuntu 12.04 and am stuck trying to set up the correct resolution for my LCD display.  The native resolution for the LCD is 1920x1080  here is the output from xrandr:  $ xrandr Screen 0: minimum 320 x 200, current 1280 x 720, maximum 4096 x 4096 LVDS1 connected 1280x720+0+0 (normal left inverted right x axis y axis) 0mm x 0mm 1280x720 60.0*+ 800x600 60.3 56.2  640x480 59.9 VGA1 disconnected (normal left inverted right x axis y axis)   Then I create new modeline:  $ cvt 1920 1080 60 1920x1080 59.96 Hz (CVT 2.07M9) hsync: 67.16 kHz; pclk: 173.00 MHz Modeline "1920x1080_60.00" 173.00 1920 2048 2248 2576 1080 1083 1088 1120 -hsync +vsync   So far so good. Then I create new mode using xrandr:  $ xrandr --newmode "1920x1080_60.00" 173.00 1920 2048 2248 2576 1080 1083 1088 1120 -hsync +vsync   But for some reason that new mode was created for VGA (VGA1) output instead of LCD output (LVDS1):  $ xrandr Screen 0: minimum 320 x 200, current 1280 x 720, maximum 4096 x 4096 LVDS1 connected 1280x720+0+0 (normal left inverted right x axis y axis) 0mm x 0mm 1280x720 60.0*+ 800x600 60.3 56.2  640x480 59.9  VGA1 disconnected (normal left inverted right x axis y axis) 1920x1080_60.00 (0xbc) 173.0MHz &lt;---------- ????!!!!!! h: width 1920 start 2048 end 2248 total 2576 skew 0 clock 67.2KHz v: height 1080 start 1083 end 1088 total 1120 clock 60.0Hz   So, if I try to add mode to LVDS1, I get an error:  $ xrandr --addmode LVDS1 "1920x1080_60.00" X Error of failed request: BadMatch (invalid parameter attributes) Major opcode of failed request: 149 (RANDR) Minor opcode of failed request: 18 (RRAddOutputMode) Serial number of failed request: 25 Current serial number in output stream: 26   Adding that new mode to VGA1 works fine, but I don't use that VGA1 output.

I would like to setup dual screens.  I've done multiple searches but there is nothing beginner-friendly for me to grasp exactly what I need to do to get the setup working.  I've picked up a few commands and here's what I have:  xrandr Screen 0: minimum 320 x 200, current 1920 x 1080, maximum 8192 x 8192 DVI-I-1 connected 1920x1080+0+0 (normal left inverted right x axis y axis) 476mm x 268mm    1920x1080      60.0*+    1680x1050      60.0      1280x1024      60.0      1440x900       59.9      1280x960       60.0      1152x864       75.0      1024x768       75.1     70.1     60.0      832x624        74.6      800x600        72.2     75.0     60.3     56.2      640x480        72.8     75.0     66.7     60.0      720x400        70.1   DP-1 disconnected (normal left inverted right x axis y axis) DP-2 disconnected (normal left inverted right x axis y axis)   I suspect I should see either one of the following connected since I have the second monitor plugged in correct?    DP-1 disconnected (normal left inverted right x axis y axis)   DP-2 disconnected (normal left inverted right x axis y axis)   I seem to have an NVIDIA graphics card as per the following:  lspci -nn | grep VGA 02:00.0 VGA compatible controller [0300]: NVIDIA Corporation GK107 [Quadro K2000] [10de:0ffe] (rev a1)   Some system information:  No LSB modules are available. Distributor ID: Debian Description:    Debian GNU/Linux 7.4 (wheezy) Release:    7.4 Codename:   wheezy   How to set this up for what I need to do next?

I'm new to Ubuntu... I went to the downloads page and downloaded the Windows Installer as I am hoping initially to have a dual boot on my currently Win 7 PC (I would consider preserving my Win7 install as a VM under Ubuntu instead - advice?)  It's asking me to choose an "Installation size" but there's no explanation as to what the significance of this is. Is this a disc partition?  Can I increase it easily later if it's too small?  I came here to ask these questions and now I see a bunch of threads about 'WUBI' and possible downsides of installing Ubuntu this way. Is the Windows Installer I just downloaded going to give me WUBI?

Q: I have two monitors with different scaling on the same window. Any ideas on how to fix this issue? I also have a minor issue with new windows or browser windows opening half off screen and I think it could be related by not sure.  Info: I have a Optiplex 990 with an NVidia GTX 750 Ti for CAD and modeling on Windows 10. I'm running two monitors, the first being a DellP2213 over DVI and the second being a Dell UP3214Q over Mini DP. Both monitors are set to native and I haven't made any changes to scaling or resolutions.  I've included  so you can see what I'm talking about, as well as two shots from the display settings.  The first image is a photo of the layout.   Next is the print screen of the layouts.   The other two pictures show the basic settings of the monitors.    If anyone needs more information, please let me know.  Edit: Tried updating drivers and removing the NVidia Control Panel settings. No dice.

I'm using Ubuntu 12.04.3 with NVidia drivers (319) for my Quadro K2100M graphic card, and when I switch my main 3200x1800 laptop screen to mode 1920x1080 (using nvidia-settings), the display goes blurry...  I am using two screens:    My main screen is a LCD with max resolution 1920x1200. My laptop screen (original resolution 3200x1800) is sitting to the right of that.   The main problem is that, on Ubuntu, the font is far too small on my laptop screen. Because of that, I wanted to change the resolution of my laptop to 1920x1080.  Reading , I tried to  and here is the DPI configuration which I should have:   94x94 for my main LCD screen 1920x1200 235x236 for my 3200x1800 laptop screen   Is there a way to have dual DPI resolutions with an extended desktop?

I've installed Ubuntu 16.04 LTS along side with Windows 10 (I shrinked my Disk using Windows Disk Management) on my Acer laptop (ES1-531-C13G), but when I restart/reboot my system no menu (Grub screen) appears from where I can select the operating system that I want to boot with, but instead, system takes me into Windows 10 everytime. I've tried several things from internet including :    Ran bcdedit /set {bootmgr} path \EFI\ubuntu\grubx64.efi from windows command prompt.  Reset  Bootorder i.e. first Ubuntu then Windows from Ubuntu terminal (after successful Ubuntu installation) etc, but nothing works for me so far. Please guide me !

Native resolution of my monitor is 1920 x 1200; however, when I connect it via a D-Sub cable, I can't choose this resolution. Only 1920 x 1080 and 2048 x 1152 are available. How can I make my native resolution available?  UPS I'm using Windows 8.1 x64. Monitor is detected as Generic Non-PnP. My monitor drivers installation says that the monitor is not found (I guess because it's connected via an analog cable)  UPD2 I've installed Dell monitor drivers forcibly, but the native resolution still is not available in the resolution selector.

I installed Ubuntu 18.04 After installation, I rebooted the computer, entered the grub menu, pressed e in ubuntu added the nomodeset option and Ubuntu presented the Gnome interface in a resolution of 1024X768 telling me: Unknown Display. So my question is how to install the drivers for my NVIDIA GTX 1050 graphics card

I recently switched to a new PC at work, one with two (identical, Dell 23") monitors. I'm running Linux Mint 15 64bit / Cinnamon. Is there a way to set it up in such a way that, instead of both monitors sharing the same huge workspace, they are on separate smaller ones? E.g. left monitor on workspace 1, right monitor on workspace 2, and I could switch either monitor to workspace 3 if needed?  Failing that, is there a way to duplicate the bottom panel onto the second monitor? Currently it is only displayed on the left one.

I have dual boot configured with Windows 7 (32bit) and Ubuntu 12.04(64bit). I installed Ubuntu after windows, now my windows is corrupt due to some virus and I need to reinstall it. Currently when I start my PC, grub loader comes up and I need to select Ubuntu or Windows.   I was wondering how can I install windows again and still have my Ubuntu install? Is there a way to do this?  I do not want to install Ubuntu again and lose my settings and data there.   Thanks, Ketan

I am dual booting Windows 10 and Ubuntu 18.04. How to tell grub not to show the boot menu and boot directly to Windows 10 by default? What should I do if I want to boot to Ubuntu 18.04 instead of the default Windows 10?

On my secondary monitor (currently using Windows 10), my taskbar will barely show up. I've tried adjusting the resolution to lower ones (it recommends 1920x1080) and it doesn't do much. Is there a way to adjust the taskbar so I can see it?  That is about what I see. I could make it bigger via Snipping Tool and see my entire desktop on the picture but not normally.

I went ahead and installed windows 10 on my windows 8 and Ubuntu dual boot PC. All went smooth and Windows 10 works perfectly however the computer automatically boots to Windows and the grub launcher is missing. The partitions are still there I just need some help getting Ubuntu back. Thank you in advance!   Edit: I found a way around it. I don't know of this works for everyone but I went in to the control panel and went to update and recovery. Then I went to recovery and booted into uefi.  Then I selected boot from device and my Ubuntu partition was there and I could boot into it.  Feel free to post other solutions though!
