    What drivers did you install and how exactly did you install them ?

    mage vga drivers
    this doenst answer anything. Give DETAILS!!
    What VGA drivers did you install and what were the step you took.

    Also give details on the VGA hardware and the Ubuntu version you installed.

    If people are to help you, they have to know what you did in detail and what hardware and software you have.

    oya vga drivers install kare kohomada? manually dl karalada? nathnam repository eken da? (synaptic package manager) ?

    if you have installed correct drivers, it should give you correct res. If not, you have to edit xorg. it is a dangerous thing. if you dont know, you could currpt things...

    I think there is a graphical xorg frond end in the latest version of ubuntu. you can use that, which will give less risk than editing the file. or you can open the xorg.conf file and post the entire thing inside. someone will edit it for you. but make sure you have installed propper drives.if you tried to install it in any other way than the syaptic, you maybe have got the drive brocken or something.....

    look for something like this

    Section "Screen"
    Identifier "Default Screen"
    Device "nVidia Corporation GeForce Go 7900 GS"
    Monitor "Generic Monitor"
    Defaultdepth 24
    SubSection "Display"
    Modes "1920x1200"
    EndSubSection


    EndSection

    all you have to do is add your custom res in the correct format and restart.
