[xubuntu-users] Default Screen Resolution & Refresh Frequency

[Xianwen Chen]

Dear Hannah,

Thanks for your tip. I think your method is a good way to solve the
problem, however, I'm not able to install 7.04 currently. I have to
wait for other tips, or until next vacation. I shall update you later
when I have solved the problem.

Sincerely,

Wen
