Hi, just installed 8.04 Xubuntu -- running Xfce -- my machine is a DECTOP -- it supports screen resolutions up to 1600x1200 -- I am using a 1280x1024 screen, but the install was not able to discern that higher than 800x600 was available and is using the default in the display preferences and doesnt give me any higher resolutions I can pick. Tried changing xorg.conf -- no luck, also tried menu.lst (ok during boot) switches back to 800x600 when the splash screen comes up.

I had previously installed 6.06 LTS from the ALT disk and it worked just fine at 1280x1024.
