Graphic driver and resolution on Kubuntu (question & problem)

[sartic]

On Ubuntu I just click when Ubuntu pop up there is better driver 4 my vga. How on Kubuntu?

On my test machine graphic card is ATI onboard and display is Samsung CRT. Kubuntu always use 1024x768/85Hz (that is better 4 eyes I know but if I change it to 1280x1024/75Hz after restart I am back to 1024x768/85Hz ?!

the system will use what the monitor tells it to use as its default refresh rate. if you want to override that you will need to make an /etc/X11/xorg.conf file.

You can also use xrandr settings and make them persistent rather than creating xorg.conf if you prefer.
