Hi guys,
M mostly on the computerhope chat .. but got a problem .. been working on it researched on it myself but didnt find a satisfying solution.
I have ubuntu 10.10 upgraded from 10.04 with dual boot with xp. Have not able to find proper drives for my motherboard using ubuntu. Therefore, the Display properties show monitor: unkown.
Specs: (Custom Built)
Via K8M800-CE + VT8237R Chipsets
AMD Sempron 2600+
Monitor : Viewsonic LCD VA1703w
I have tried vesa, via drivers and currently I have openchrome drivers installed. I have googled a lot and also asked on the ubuntu irc channel but they also seem to find no solution to this. The display properties say Monitor: unknown, rotations not supported. I have tried manually editing the xorg.conf and have atleast enable smooth scrolling of pages. I have tried various options in the xorg. M not able to enjoy the full graphics etc for ubuntu. The legacy drivers on via website are also of no use. From what I have read on the launchpad is the via technologies have not yet released proper drivers for ubuntu for the particular motherboard series i have. So, users having this motherboard series have to do a workaround to make there graphics card work to the satisfaction.
Do you ppl have any idea abt this??
Thanks
