Hello;
I've been reading the posts on this forum about my subject issue and I'm more confused now than before. I don't know what my problem is nor do I know how to fix it.
PROBLEM:
1. Kubuntu System Settings reports screen resolution at 1600x1200. Although the screen doesn't appear "squashed," it may be. Another possibility is that the resolution really is 1920x1200, but KDE is not reporting it correctly.
2. KDE System Settings only "sees" my old monitor (Dell p1110) which was not a wide screen monitor. I can fix this of course using the KDE System Settings administrator mode, but I hesitate to do that until I know there are no driver problems.
Using a terminal:
- How do find out what nvidia driver is active or being used?
- What driver should I be using?
SYSTEM INFO:
Athalon 2200XP CPU
nvidia geForce 4200ti AGP X8 graphics card
Dell 2407wfp monitor
I've already commented out the wacom, eraser, and pc tablet lines from my X.conf file. This didn't change anything, but it wasn't supposed to either. I just thought you should know.
I can certainly provide the code for my x.conf file and DMESG if you need me to. Please advise.
