ReplyDeleteawww yeaaahhh!!!
ReplyDeletethanks! it's works!!!
ReplyDeleteI get the error alert that system does not recognize the encoding or smth like this and it suggests to edit it manually or retry. Any ideas?
ReplyDeleteI have one compaq monitor that goes to 1440 x 900 resolution and an HDTV that goes to 1920 x 1080. However, when I was using NVIDIA X Server on 10.04 LTS, I had a dozen or so resolutions to choose from for the TV including 1440 x 900. Now with 12.04 LTS, I only have one HD resolution on the TV which is 1920 x 1080. I was able to set them both at 1440 x 900 so they would be equal, but now I can't.
ReplyDeleteAny suggestions?
Works perfect on Mint 14. Thanks so much!!!
ReplyDeleteWorks fine on Ubunu 13
