After a good while I finally got Ubuntu 11.04 to display on this screen except I cannot see my lower panel and part of upper panel is off the visible area. I’m kind of memory challenged from a TBI.
My video card is a Gforce 5200FX and the only resolution available in Monitor preferences is 1280X720 and the T.V.is listed as a 32″ Panasonic. I do not believe that I have have drivers installed for the card but will be trying that now. I’m not running Unity and do not foresee using it in the future — wutt a mess that iz!!!
Well driver installed I have to reboot not unlike Wimbloz so off I go…Well I’m back and drivers gave me some different settings to confuse me with and none of them worked. The more I toyed with it the wackier the the screen out put got and it seemed like I have no control over the Panasonic output. Both panels are not visible on the 50″ Panny now… Thanx for any input!%:)
My suspicions are poor or failing video card or inept user.
Panasonic 50" 720p as monitor from Ubuntu Linux
