How do i switch my video card output on Ubuntu Server 11.10? It has a video card with one DVI and one VGA. It's defaulting to the VGA. I want it to default to the DVI.

I only have ssh connection via the network and no monitor until i can switch to the DVI output.

What's the command or config file i have to mess with to switch to the DVI output on the Video Card?

You can try xrandr. With no commands it will list the different options you have. Then you can choose the one you need:

xrandr



xrandr --help



xrandr --output HDMI-0
