i miss squares

okay.. i'm surprised i'm this far this fast.. i really thought straight configuration would take me weeks more than it has but here i am.. shit is working and i'm at my favorite step (which i was never successful at before)...

fixing my video resolution...

when i bought this laptop (Medion Akoya Ex) i was all proud of myself for having a a nice little 14" wide screen, 1280x768 in effect!

well although i never even thought about dealing with the resolution in windows... Linux doesn't love it... i can't convince it to believe me about the resolution.. best it even offers me is 1024x768...

well i found a little suggestion on the kubuntu forums (http://kubuntuforums.net/forums/index.php?topic=6622.0) that said to run this in the terminal..
"sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg"
well i did..
blindly.. so i just wanted to leave this short note before i fried my display.. i'll let you know if me and my little laptop are functional after this.
