How then Do i Increase the resolution?. . clearly I need to edit something. . . Nowadays, xrandr does the job. xorg.conf is not needed... :( I know.. I was lost too. what you need is xrandr to set the resolution and cvt to generate a mode if doesn't exist on xrandr For starters, try the manual for xrandr and cvt, then read this https://wiki.ubuntu.com/X/Config/Resolution if you are still lost, please paste your xrandr output..
