i have problem in my ubuntu

[elonlon]

hello
i had a problem but my ubuntu installation was successful but i cannot use X since my monitor will only take a specific resolution, so i can only boot in rescue mode.
what can i do?

and thanks...:):):)

In safe mode, go to system, preferences, screen resolution. Pick your resolution/refresh rate and reboot.

Start in recovery mode then in terminal:
sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg

Choose vesa driver
and
the size of the screen you want to use.(disable all the others)
and
save xorg file


Now the screen is in default, and you can boot.
Now you can start again and install the driver of your videocard, or envy(automatic).
