(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); So i just downloaded Ubuntu and installed it. So i load it up and i though the resolution was a bit too big (800/420..i think) so i change it to 620 by sommet else thinking it was going to make it smaller.but when i accept every things bigger. So i go back to the resolution and try to change it back but i cant click accept because i cant get to it. I cant move the page up or resize it enough to get to the accept, and when i press enter it changes the last option i clicked within the resolution page.
Anyone know how to get it back to the 800 option?


(I hope you understand what i mean)


EDIT: I changed the res back to 800 by 600, but i only have 2 options. i was wondering if there is a way to get the windows 1200 by 800 i think it is?


Also, how do i connect to a wireless internet? i just figured out the wired one so i might have found it soon.

Im new to ubuntu so dont hate me.

I think you mean that it was set to 800x600 and you changed it to 640x480. When you say too big, do you mean that things on the screen were too big, or the resolution was too high? I think you wanted to increase the resolution to something like 1024x768 or 1280x1024. You'll have to change the screen resolution by editing your xorg config.

Wireless can be tricky in Linux sometimes. Good luck! Happy
