How to fix Display problems in Ubuntu

Problems with you screen? Here's a short step for you!





Seldom, Ubuntu might not detect your monitor and other screen resolutions.  If you change your graphics card, the OS might not recognize it.    You can fix this problem by reconfiguring your graphics settings.  You need to do the following:

  1. Restart your computer.
  2. Logon to the terminal on startup by pressing esc (escape) key when Grub loads.
  3. Follow the prompts accordingly.
  4. Key in "sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg".

    As far as i am concerned this is the best way to do it.
    1) Install the restricted drivers the way you want(display drivers)
    2) Once done run this command -- displayconfig -gtk
    and then you will get a config box - in plug and play section choose your monitor and resolution and save and logout thats all :)
