Black vertical line on Right Side of the Screen

[Diego Vega]

The OS appears to not recognize the monitors size and no mater if I select the native resolution, the black line still there. I've notice also that there are 2 display options, LVDS and VGA, but the problem is that the VGA doesn't exist, only the LVDS. I've already done the xrandr commands, and added the resolutions witch fitted better to the machine, but my guess is that it is not the resolution, it is a miscommunication between the OS and the hardware.

Please help, I'm a linux user with less experience, but I like it a lot and I wish to stay in Ubuntu(even with that black line, but it would be better to not).

Thanks for your awesome work
