Loaded Ubuntu 8.04 32 bit on my old sandbox computer with a likewise old
crt monitor and the initial screen resolution from the loading was 10??
x 768. That fit and all was well. I did the updates (all 111 of them)
and when I rebooted, the screen reset to 800 x 600. That won't let me
see the entire dialog box borders of many of the settings I am trying to
change. The whole bottom is cut off behind the bottom panel. I can't
get to the "go/whoa/start/stop/cancel buttons. When I go to the screen
resolution panel, it no longer shows any resolution above 800 x 600.
How do I get the old resolution back?
