    Post the contents of /etc/X11/xorg.conf file here.
    It is amazing what you can accomplish if you do not care who gets the credit.

    Log in as root, open /etc/X11/xorg.conf and put # sign before this line
    Code:
    DisplaySize 332 207
    Save file and press Alt+Ctrl+Backspace.
    In case it doesn't work, execute this
    Code:
    su -
lspci | grep -i vga
    Post output here.
    It is amazing what you can accomplish if you do not care who gets the credit.
