The resolution is stuck at roughly 1000x700. Neither display settings nor xrandr + cvt let me adjust the available display sizes. How do I increase the resolution?

1 Answer

Edit/create /etc/X11/xorg.conf to contain the following:

Section "Screen" Identifier "MyScreen" Subsection "Display" Virtual 1920 1080 EndSubSection
EndSection

(In the above case for a resolution of 1920x1080)
