resolution changes itself when i reboot or close session

Resolution changes itself to a default 1920x1080 every time i reboot or close session ... i can't keep another resolution except this, and i tried VGA , HDMI, DVI, and even the propietary Nvidia driver...

Try searching the forum for xrandr. If you can fix your problem this way, then you can set it up to do so automatically at boot. I had a similar problem which was ahrdware-related - that monitor was on the way out.

Something that could be relevant here. I use the following script when I first start xorg or connect to an external monitor.

Code: Select all

#!/bin/bash

if [ `xrandr | grep -c ' connected '` -eq 2 ]; then # dual monitor
	if [ `xrandr | grep -c 'VGA-0 connected'` -eq 1 ]; then
		xrandr --output LVDS --auto --primary --output VGA-0 --auto --right-of LVDS
	fi
	if [ `xrandr | grep -c 'HDMI-0 connected'` -eq 1 ]; then
		xrandr --output LVDS --auto --primary --output HDMI-0 --auto --right-of LVDS
	fi
#	xsetroot -solid \#333333
else
	xrandr --output LVDS --auto --primary --output VGA-0 --off --output HDMI-0 --off
#	feh --bg-center ~/Pictures/Wallpapers/kiwi-wallpaper.jpg
fi

I hope this is somehow helpful

That's a nice script!
