Just upgraded to 8.04...a 790 meg download and watching the screen for an hour---only to wake up to a 640x800 desktop. Finally got it up to 1280x960...but can't get it to 1680x1050 (the monitors native resolution).
Seems every combination I try makes it worse..not better. The problem may be the fact my monitor is not in the screendisplay list...it's an LG L206WTQ...and the Intel video is 865 (rather old I guess). I am using L204 for now.

The display is also a little flattened...circles look a little squashed..like eggs.

How do I get this combo working??

Thanks
