Asked by Aris

I install ubuntu 7.10 and when I tried to install the LG L204ws wide monitor, I found out that it was not in the ubuntu monito's list. I wonder what can I do to have the 1680X1050 resolution. Thank You

From what Aris said, the only problem he got is a misdetected resolution. And he will soon get it right.

If you have a problem, please open another question, I will be glad to answer it.

Can you help with this problem?
