I did reinstall and the monitor problem remains unchanged. However, when booting I have the opportunity to go into repair mode and launch a root partican shell which I think will allow me to execute the commands you gave earlier. Would you be so kind as to explain to me how to enter them and treat me as a total novice?<br>

don't recall if you can set anything manually.<br>
Just remember to try switch to a terminal (ctrl + alt + F1) and then you can<br>
go edit that xorg.conf file again.<br>

Best of luck.<br>
