Hi,<BR>
<BR>
My graphics settings will not remain persistent. I need to set it to 1366x768, but the closest I am allowed is 1280x768, but even that does not remain so after logout or reboot.<BR>
<BR>
I have an ASUS M2N68-AM SE2 motherboard which has the NVIDIA GeForce 7025 graphics chipset onboard, Ubuntu Hardy 8.04.2 is installed, 2 GB RAM is installed. I have enabled the non-free graphics drivers. A Dell 19 inch widescreen LCD monitor is connected to this motherboard. The monitor says that optimum resolution is 1366x768, but I do not have that option in the nvidia-settings control panel. nvidia-settings and nvidia-xconfig are installed. The version of the driver is 169.12. I am downloading the current version from nvidia.com and intend to install it to see if that will make any difference.<BR>
<BR>
I downloaded the driver, and I have a chicken and egg situation it seems. I can not install the driver because X server is running, I can stop X server if I boot to a root shell from the grub menu, but that is runlevel 1 and the driver installer is complaining about that. What to do?<BR>
<BR>
Any suggestions?<BR>
