Further update thanks to great help in IRC Chanel
[code/]
#!/bin/bash
export DISPLAY=:0
xrandr --newmode "1920x1200_60.00" 193.25 1920 2056 2256 2592 1200 1203 1209 1245 -hsync +vsync
xrandr --addmode VGA2 1920x1200_60.00
xrandr --output VGA2 --mode 1920x1200_60.00
[/code]
this makes the changes happen at boot up when I tell kubuntu to run this script
Apologies all, broke the first rule of forums and did not look around (ashamed look)
xrandr to the rescue
using xrandr cvt 1920 1200
output being "1920x1200_60.00" 193.25 1920 2056 2256 2592 1200 1203 1209 1245 -hsync +vsync
then xrandr --newmode "1920x1200_60.00" 193.25 1920 2056 2256 2592 1200 1203 1209 1245 -hsync +vsync
then xrandr --addmode VGA2 1920x1200_60.00
and its working
Sheesh - does that make me a Linux geek now

Hi all
Can I firstly say - S U P E R B
The first distro to get all three screen working right off the bat. Thank You
So, even though I am no longer a newb. Can anyone guide me to how I can set my 3rd screen resolution as I know it will show 1920x1200 but all control adjustments only say it goes upto 1024x768
Many Thanks in advance
