Currently attempting to change my resolution on my Ubuntu laptop to use just the built-in screen instead of both the built-in and attached screens (currently configured with TwinView). When I run xrandr, I get the following error:
Code:
$ xrandr
xrandr: Failed to get size of gamma for output default
Screen 0: minimum 1600 x 900, current 3648 x 1152, maximum 3648 x 1152
default connected 3648x1152+0+0 0mm x 0mm
3648x1152 50.0*
1600x900_60.00 59.9
So no output is displayed. It used to be displaying VGA0 at one point when it was working. If I try and remove the current single-screen mode and start over I get:
Code:
$ xrandr --rmmode 1600x900_60.00
xrandr: Failed to get size of gamma for output default
X Error of failed request: BadAccess (attempt to access private resource denied)
Major opcode of failed request: 153 (RANDR)
Minor opcode of failed request: 17 (RRDestroyMode)
Serial number of failed request: 19
Current serial number in output stream: 20
I've done some research online, but everyone says post xorg.conf and then points out something that appears to have nothing to do with my issue. So here's my xorg.conf:
Code:
$ cat /etc/X11/xorg.conf
