How to Correct the Graphics Resolution (Intel)

• ntel 915g, 945g, etc. graphics chipsets only have a limited set of resolutions initially installed, despite the correct driver being detected.
• Install the resolution altering tool:

sudo apt-get install 915resolution

• Run the following to see the availible modes:

915resolution -l

• Choose a resolution you don't need and replace, for example the following changes 1920x1440 to 1920x1200

915resolution 5c 1920 1200

• This should add the option for that resolution to the "System>Preferences>Screen Resolution" tool.
• If it works correctly then you can make the change permanent:

sudo gedit /etc/rc.local

• Simply add the command you typed in above before:

exit 0
