External Monitor Resolution incorrect on X61tablet with mint

[ymarker]

Hi All,

I'm loving how fast linux is. But I need help with this - the resolution for the external monitor (VGA) is incorrect. I want it to be 1920x1200 (16:9) 60 hz. My laptop display (LVDS) is fine at 1400x1050.

Here is my current setting:

Code: Select all

linuxrocks@linuxrocks-ssd ~ $ xrandr
Screen 0: minimum 320 x 200, current 1400 x 1050, maximum 2760 x 1050
VGA connected (normal left inverted right x axis y axis)
   1360x768       59.8  
   1152x864       60.0  
   1024x768       60.0  
   800x600        60.3  
   640x480        59.9  
LVDS connected 1400x1050+0+0 (normal left inverted right x axis y axis) 245mm x 184mm
   1400x1050      50.0*+
   1280x1024      60.0     60.0  
   1280x960       60.0  
   1360x768       59.8  
   1152x864       60.0  
   1024x768       60.0  
   800x600        60.3     56.2  
   640x480        60.0     59.9
