I am using Daryna on an Acer Veriton desktop (fairly recent). Every couple of times I log in, my screen resolution changes to something lower and I have to reset it and reboot. If it helps, I have desktop settings set to 'Normal'. Anyone have any ideas?
I don't think I have a separate graphics card.

Re: Lost screen resolution
Post the output of from a terminal, and post a copy of your /etc/X11/xorg.conf file. What resolution are you wanting?

I want the resolution to stay at 1280x1024
Cheers!
