[Bug 1383386] Re: display at 648 x 480

 

lazzasurf, thank you for reporting this and helping make Ubuntu better.
As per http://www.asus.com/Notebooks_Ultrabooks/K50C/HelpDesk_Download/
an update to your computer's buggy and outdated BIOS is available (210).
If you update to this following
https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BIOSUpdate does it change anything?

If it doesn't, could you please both specify what happened, and provide the output of the following terminal command:
sudo dmidecode -s bios-version && sudo dmidecode -s bios-release-date

For more on BIOS updates and linux, please see
https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ReportingBugs#Bug_reporting_etiquette
.

Please note your current BIOS is already in the Bug Description, so
posting this on the old BIOS would not be helpful. As well, you don't
have to create a new bug report.

Once the BIOS is updated, and the information above is provided, then
please mark this report Status New.

Thank you for your understanding.
