changing resoultion without xorg.conf?

[asheq]

I had to re-install Ubuntu. And I actually fixed the resolution problem the first time with some other command, but since I had to re-install ubuntu; it's gone again.
And I cannot find the same webpage with it.
I've googled it, and I'm not confident enough to trust myself with the xorg file.

Does anyone know the right command?
It's just a one line thing.

My fault, I forgot to mention it's the resolution problem where the only resoulution that appears is 800x600.

Then make sure any hardware driver is installed.

What sort of video card are you using?

[asheq]

The driver is installed, and i'm using nvidia

Did you try installing and using envyng?

sudo apt-get install envyng-gtk

That or using one of the nvidia-glx drivers available in the repos?

[asheq]

Fixed. Thanks so much. I had to restart 4 or 5 times, but it finally worked.

No sweat. Glad you got it going.
