Hi,
I have just installed Kubuntu 6.06 and so everything seemed to be working fine. The major problem is that it seems to be stuck at 640x480 screen resolution. I have an old nVidia GeForce2 video card which it detects. It just won't let me increase the resolution or refresh rate. I know the card is capable since this computer runs Win98SE dual boot and I run it at 1280x1024 and 72Hz. Prior to loading Kubuntu, I had Linspire 5.0 on it which also ran at that same resolution. In searching this forum I found the suggestion to run
sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg.
I tried this and when it got to the end, it hung and I had to reboot the computer. Now, when I try to reboot, it hangs on the blue Ubuntu boot screen. I can boot the "recovery" mode but then I don't know what to do to "recover." Can anyone point me in the right direction?
