I’ve just installed Zorin 16. The video display is wrong. In “settings”, my display name is shown as “Unknown display.” The resolution is set to 1024x768. I have generated the modeline the “1920x1080 60,” but I can’t add it with xrandr because I can’t find the name of my display. This is a deal breaker. I am not willing to install the proprietary Nvideo drivers. I’ve used the generic x-windows driver on half a dozen other didtros, and on one of them had to manually set the resolution, but can’t remember how I got the display name. I don’t get it. The Live CD configured the display fine. What did it do wrong during the installation?
Try
sudo ubuntu-drivers autoinstall
To install the Nouveau drivers you need, then try setting your resolution.
If that does not work, you can try the x-swat repo:
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:ubuntu-x-swat/updates
sudo apt update && sudo apt full-upgrade
Then test resolution settings.
