Hi People,
Ave installed Ubuntu Jaunty Jackalope 9.04 on my pc but cant get the resolution higher than 800 x 600 . . .Googling shows that its a common problem but their solutions are Greek to me and dont seem to work. . .. my xorg.conf file doesnt show much to edit and I think I have installed all the packages that concern my graphics device(S3 Prosavage ddr)
Anyone have a work around?
