[NBLUG/talk] Ubuntu Video driver Resolution

[Christopher Wagner]

I would recommend renaming your xorg.conf file and letting a new one 
autogenerate, then reinstalling the Ubuntu repository nVidia drivers.  
Theoretically it should have been regenerated when installing the nVidia 
drivers, but perhaps not.

Afterwards I can only boot to recovery mode, and am stuck with a display size of 1280 x 720. My Dell S2330mx monitor is capable of 1920 X 1080.

Any ideas before I decided to do a clean install. Sorry everthing's on one partition, so I'll have to reinstall my LAMP stack, Wordpress, phpmyadmin again.
