<p>Hi Niyam<br>
</p><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex;">i am also facing a lot of problems with my nVidia GeForce 2 on-board<br>
my asus motherboard, where i've recently installed ubntu 8.04. i only<br>
get 800x600.<br>
after a lot of trying, i found this resource:<br>
<a href="http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?s=a09ddc7aad134bc3c5135ed43e4780f9&t=766846&page=2" target="_blank">http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?s=a09ddc7aad134bc3c5135ed43e4780f9&t=766846&page=2</a><br>
<br>
it did solve my problem, but did not make the resolution persistent.<br>
so i had to do some more fiddling, mentioned in the comments is<br>
something about 'virtual' settings, which had to be the same. that<br>
fixed the log-in screen resolution, which i've again pushed back to<br>
800x600 as it screwed everything again at a higher resolution.<br>
<br>
have also switched off my nvidia driver, disabled it, using<br>
system>administration>hardware drivers, as it was causing a lot of<br>
problems.<br>
using ubuntu menu > others > screen and graphics, i am now on 1024 x 768.<br>
<br>
<br>
i so want to get my nvidia graphics used properly, and try out beryl<br>
and compiz. :-(<br><br>
</blockquote><p>Sorry you've had to switch off your video card. I have no experience of GeForce 2 so can not suggest anything. Mine does work, only I have to reset the config everytime I login. That is a pain too.<br>
