Re: Fedora, GUI is displayed only as aspect ration 4:3 and not in widescreen format
Try to this way, may be it will help for ypu:
Replace driver by running the apt-get command. Open your terminal and type command:
$ sudo apt-get install xserver-xorg-video-intel
Now run ddcprobe command to get monitor VertRefresh values and HorizSync rate:
$ sudo ddcprobe | grep monitorrange
Output:
monitorrange: 24-82, 50-75
"24-82 is your HorizSync rates and the second pair is your VertRefresh (50-75) values."
Next reconfigure xserver (X.org) video and monitor using auto detect feature:
$ sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
Set monitor resolution 1440 x 900 and others as per your requirement. Save the changes and reboot the system.
After login you can adjust screen resolution by visiting System > Preferences > Screen Resolution > Select desired screen resolution such as 1440 x 900 and save the changes.
hope it will help for you...
