res problem

[2roombas]

Hi... I did the i915.modeset=0 xforcevesa thing and yippie, it worked!:) However the res is all messed up (see attached) and only a 640x480 monitor is detected.

Before I click the "install" icon to install this on this desktop, how can I fix that? And am I even to assume that that clicking the install icon is all I need to do now?

Chances are you will have the exact same problem after installing. Have you tried with just i915.modeset=0 ?

I just did that and so far so good. Thank you!:)

You will probably need to apply that same fix after installing.
If so, edit /etc/default/grub

Find this line:
GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="quiet splash"

and change it to

GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="quiet splash i915.modeset=0"

youll have to run
sudo update-grub after that
