As title states, I would like to know if it's possible for my graphic card to have higher resolution than 1024x768 which shows as maximum resolution in Display setting. My screen is 32 inch Polaroid HDTV.



My graphic card information:



  *-display               
description: VGA compatible controller
product: 82915G/GV/910GL Integrated Graphics Controller
vendor: Intel Corporation
physical id: 2
bus info: pci@0000:00:02.0
version: 04
width: 32 bits
clock: 33MHz
capabilities: pm vga_controller bus_master cap_list rom
configuration: driver=i915 latency=0
resources: irq:16 memory:cfe80000-cfefffff ioport:c800(size=8) memory:d0000000-dfffffff memory:cfe40000-cfe7ffff


I have Ubuntu 11.10.



Thanks in advance.



As Intel Website states:



256-bit graphics core
8/16/32 bpp
Up to 8.5 GB/sec memory bandwidth with DDR2 533 MHz
1.3 GP/sec and 1.3 GT/sec fill rate
128 MB maximum video memory
2048x1536 at 85 Hz maximum resolution
Dynamic Display Modes for flat-panel and wide-screen support
Operating systems supported: Microsoft Windows XP*, Windows 2000*, Linux*-compatible (Xfree86 source available)


XRandr shows me modes below, but few weeks earlier this way caused me to to use safe mode because the higher resolution did not work right and I was left with blank screen.



xrandr
Screen 0: minimum 320 x 200, current 1024 x 768, maximum 4096 x 4096
VGA1 connected 1024x768+0+0 (normal left inverted right x axis y axis) 0mm x 0mm
1024x768 60.0*
800x600 60.3 56.2
848x480 60.0
640x480 59.9

Your TVs native resolution is 1366x768, so you won't be able to go much above 1024x768.



Is 1366x768 what you are hoping to achieve?



--Edit 1--



Looks like lots of people have trouble with HDTVs not reporting the resolutions they support. What do you have in your /etc/x11/xorg.conf?



--Edit 2--



Have you tried this? - Adding undetected resolutions to xorg



If you are interested, you can view the info your monitor reports about itself by installing and running read-edid



sudo apt-get install read-edid

sudo get-edid | parse-edid
