The Display settings only has 60 in the list, nothing else. It's way too flickery for me, it's usually 75 in Windows.
I'm using a Dell, and in Windows there's an Intel control app for the "Intel(R) G33/G31 Express Chipset Family" as it appears in Device Manager... Display adapters.
My Ubuntu is booted up via a persistent USB stick (2GB) installation of 9.04, set up using LiLi.
It appears (from the date/time stamp) that the etc/x11/xorg.conf is re-written from the bootup Hardware Detection phase each time, so any changes made there get lost.
Is there any solution, or do I give up? I can't even figure out how to get drivers onto Linux - the dialog says it's searching but none exist on my system ... and it doesn't provide a way to lookup on the net, at least not that I can see.
If this is "Linux is ready for the desktop" I have to say at the moment it doesn't feel like it but I accept that I'm not running this in a normal way and I'm hoping that The Community will have an answer for me! Thanks
