So I've been running Kubuntu 9.10 for some time, and recently this morning when I rebooted Kubuntu would not let me change the resolution past 640x480. I did some researching and people told me on IRC that it could be the driver broke. So I removed it and re-installed it and still nothing. I tried reverting back to an older version, and still the problem persisted.
However the weirdest thing is that now I can't connect to my monitor through DVI. I've hooked up my laptop and it works great with my monitor. I even hooked up my desktop to a different monitor using DVI and it still works. However kubuntu and my DVI connect to this particular monitor just don't seem to click.
Essentially I was dropped into a terminal on boot, and I just gave up on trying to fix Kubuntu and came back to regular old Ubuntu. Everything is working silky smooth, but I'm shocked at what just happened.
Anyone have any idea what in the world could of gone wrong?!? I'm so lost for an explanation.
