Novatech laptop, only getting 800 x 600 resolution on 1280 x 800 tft display SIS 771/671
Asked by
David S
I'm new to Linux. I've installed UBUNTU 8.04 on my Novatech laptop. The screen resolutions I'm offered are 640 x 480 and 800 x 600. The native resolution for the TFT display is 1280 x 800 so I'm not only getting low res but height to width are in the wrong ratio. UBUNTU does not list any drivers but the VGA contoller is identified as SiS 771/671 PCIE VGA display adaptor in the device manager I downloaded (in the hope that it might help). The laptop is model U50SI1. Please help.
