18.10 doesn't recognize my display while 18.04 did
0
I have an Ubuntu Desktop 18.10 with a 4.18.0-13-generic kernel. I also have a VGA compatible controller RV770 [Radeon HD 4850] whose display is UNCLAIMED. The display is the unrecognized and the only resolution is 800x600 to 800x600 I tried to add via xrandr another mode 1280x1024 at 60MHz, but with no success. The screen is a DELL 1703FP, capable of 1280x1024 at 60Hz The old 16.04 and the 18.04 recognized the screen as a Dell 1703FP and provide the correct Width x Height combinations. But not the 18.1o. I'm now stuck with a display with gigantic fonts, where all the windows are greater than the screen, with no way to adjust the situation. Any help or suggestions?
