Ok, i guess i have found my solution
First, check the available refresh rate in nvidia-settings.
Run in terminal: If you don`t have nvidia-settings installed, you can get one from synaptic.
My refresh rate was 62. Remember it, as you will need it later.
So, let`s edit xorg.conf. In terminal, open it with
Code:
sudo gedit /etc/X11/xorg.conf
(Note: I use gedit as my text editor, you may use something else.)
Next step is to generate some Modelines.
First, you must find a list of supported resolutions for your Nvidia card. I got all my resolutions from my Vista partition.
Next, you must run this command in terminal:
where x and y is a resolution you want and r is a refresh rate you got from the nvidia-settings command. For example, for resolution 800x600 run this: The output of the command would be something like this:
Code:
# 800x600 @ 62.00 Hz (GTF) hsync: 38.56 kHz; pclk: 39.49 MHz
Modeline "800x600_62.00" 39.49 800 832 912 1024 600 601 604 622 -HSync +Vsync
Add this to your xorg.conf to the "Monitor" section, just like that:
Code:
Section "Monitor"
Identifier "Configured Monitor"
# 800x600 @ 62.00 Hz (GTF) hsync: 38.56 kHz; pclk: 39.49 MHz
Modeline "800x600_62.00" 39.49 800 832 912 1024 600 601 604 622 -HSync +Vsync
EndSection
And also that resolution to the "Screen" section:
Code:
Section "Screen"
Identifier "Default Screen"
Monitor "Configured Monitor"
Device "Configured Video Device"
DefaultDepth 24
SubSection "Display"
Depth 24
Modes "1920x1200" "800x600"
EndSubSection
SubSection "Display"
Depth 16
Modes "1920x1200" "800x600"
EndSubSection
EndSection
Do that for all resolutions you need, save the xorg.conf file and than restart your PC. If you did everything right, all your defined resolutions should be available in the nvidia-settings.
Good luck!
