Hi 
Dennis,
 
I have 
K10.04 seeing a 21" 1920x1080 screen and several other (lesser) 
resolutions.  You shouldn't have to do anything, it should just detect it, 
but there is screen resolution setting programme under system setup (I think 
it's called that, I don't have my PC set to English at the 
moment).
 
If you 
don't have the right driver or patches, it may not work.
 
I had 
a new Gigabyte motherboard with K10.04 LTS and because the hardware was newer 
than the operating system it didn't detect all the settings.
 
If 
that is your problem, then upgrade your Kubuntu to 11.04 or 11.10 and it should 
detect everything.
 
Good 
luck.
 
Regards
 
Steve

Why can Kubuntu only see 800x600 while Windows saw higher 
resolutions?
It looks that you have to be a computer programmer to change the 
resolution.
Itś defently no great future from Linux that its so diffucult to 
change a resolution!
I think that i trow Kubutu away if its so difficult to 
change a simple resolution from a videocard.
If someone have tips that stood 
not on google that please tell me how i can better resolotions than the stupid 
800x600.

Dennis
