N: Ignoring file '20auto-upgrades.ucf-dist' in directory '/etc/apt/apt.conf.d/' as it has an invalid filename extension
@firenice03 - did you try the step of remove your /etc/X11/xorg.conf , if so did it help ?
sudo apt-get install linux-generic
First off, welcome back to the forum! You took a sabbatical around the time I was joining the forum.Your profile shows you using Linux Lite 3.2 and an ATI graphics card, which is AMD related. AMD didn't get their proprietary drivers in Ubuntu 16.04, which is what the Linux Lite 3.x series is based on. So I'm not sure what you mean when you write:QuoteI have tried selecting the proprietary driverIf you mean you selected the proprietary driver for your CPU because it was unselected at the time, I would keep that selection. Your graphics issue is more than likely related to the fact that your graphics card is AMD related. As a result, you're having to use the open source AMD drivers instead of the AMD proprietary drivers. I've had some success with the open source driver, but it is going to be a best effort driver and not perfect for everyone's setup.An additional resource may be located here:https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RadeonDriver
I have tried selecting the proprietary driver
lspci | grep -E 'VGA|Display'
dmesg | egrep 'drm|radeon'
sudo apt-get install mesa-utilsLIBGL_DEBUG=verbose glxinfo
Video on YouTube plays correctly, fonts are blurry on the forum and desktop, display settings are at 1024x768, the other options are lower.I want to use 1440x900 as it is correct one for this monitor.I have tried selecting the proprietary driver, this does not alter the view, and the display resolution choices remain at 1024x768 maximum. Is there a driver available that is not listed that would resolve this ?
