change resolution in Serval to non-standard

[mhedges48]

Hello; I have a System 76 Serval Professional Laptop:
64 Bit, Karmic.

The only resolution that seems to work (not be distorted) is the auto/native 1920x1200. My eyes are not good enough to keep using this. In NVIDIA X Server Settings, the smaller resolutions are all distorted; that is, for my screen, it should be 1400x900; but the option is 1400x1050.

Could someone please help explain how to set the resolution to 1400x900?

Many thanks
Matt

While I cannot answer your original question, I can suggest something to look into. Try increasing the DPI under Appearance preferences -> Fonts tab -> Details.
