Hi<br>
I am a new member. I am running Ubuntu 10.04 on a MAC PPC G5. <br>
I am having a few difficulties. I have a ATI x1600 dual DVI out
Graphics Card, <br>
and the computer is connected to a 16:9 ASUS 1080P monitor via HDMI
input.<br>
The only widescreen monitor resolution choices in Ubuntu are: <br>
1920 X 1080(16:9), 1680 X 1050(16X10), and 1440 X 900(16:10).<br>
I have severe vision limitations, and require that all fonts and
image be large. <br>
With the resolution set at 1920 X 1080, the only setting available
that allows <br>
the entire desktop to be visible, the text and images in
applications are <br>
too small for me to be able to see clearly. <br>
With resolution set at 1440 X 900, text and images are easy for me
to read, <br>
but because the ratio is 16:10 instead of 16:9, <br>
the bottom of the desktop is not visible.<br>
I have been unsuccessful in finding a driver for my ATI card <br>
that has the choices their PC drivers do,which work well with my
monitor.<br>
I also have not been successful at getting my G5 optical digital
audio output<br>
to work. It does not appear in the choices in the Sound
Preferences.<br>
Thanks<span class="HOEnZb"><font color="#888888"><br>
