Thread: Ubuntu 15 - boot - cannot display this video mode


i downloaded latest ubuntu build. burned iso cd , ran demo cd without issue. installed ubuntu accepting automatic updates, mp3 player, etc. on first boot on dell flat panel display receive - auto detect (analog input) cannot display video mode optimum resolution 1440x 900 60hz.

pc - hp pavilion media center m8100n tv pc - 15 pin video connector on system board - not have separate video card.

assume ubuntu having trouble talking flat panel display. tried old dell trinitron monitor received - out of scan range - when booting ubuntu.

beyond going out , purchasing generic video card can guys me fix issue? there key combo can hit on boot - "like windows safe mode" ubuntu settings - i'll need advice on running commands, etc

thanks.....milty

i searched through old computer stuff , located ati video card - installed in hp pc , can boot ubuntu , see screen display settings view flat panel "laptop" screen , resolution keep desktop centred on screen 832 x 624 (4:3) working resolution not greatest - assume due old video card or ubuntu drivers.

still on board integrated card working - please see previous post , offer suggestions.

again.....milty
