I need Ubuntu resolution to be 1920x1200

[kruiz194]

Just got an Imac 24" and I have installed parallels on it running windows and Ubuntu. Wondering if theres is a way to get 8.10 ubuntu to have screen res of 1920x1200.

Thanks in advance

Did you try running it in full screen mode?

Yes, i tried running it in fullscreen mode, but it displayed as a small screen directly in the middle of my monitor with black everywhere else around it. the highest it can go is 1240x800

1920 res, add more video memory assigned

According to the kb, the default assigned memory is not enough to support 1920 resolution, but adding some MB will do the trick.

Hope that helps!

Thank you sooooo much. I increased my video memory to 16 mb and it totally worked. Thank you for the link. Much appreciated
