Cant get 1366x768 with Ubuntu on Acer 751h

[brainchill]

Does anyone have one of these netbooks that they are getting the full resolution in ubuntu 9.0.4 (or any other distro for that matter)? What am I missing here. The best I can get is 1024x560

[kevdog]

did you ever get this figured out?

Create

/etc/apt/sources.list.d/ubuntu-mobile.list

with this in it

deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/ubuntu-mobile/ppa/ubuntu jaunty main
deb-src http://ppa.launchpad.net/ubuntu-mobile/ppa/ubuntu jaunty main

Then,

gpg --keyserver keyserver.ubuntu.com --recv 0c713da6
gpg --export --armor 0c713da6 | sudo apt-key add -

apt-get update
apt-get install xserver-xorg-video-psb

Then reboot and everything just works!

Hmm, it seems that this workaround doesn't work in 2.6.28-14 kernel.

dpkg -l | grep psb

ii poulsbo-driver-2d 1.1-0ubuntu1~904um1 Metapackage for the 2D Poulsbo (psb) X11 driver.

You also need this:

sudo apt-get install poulsbo-driver-3d psb-kernel-source

Worked for me on my Mini 12.
