Resolutions issues
I just installed and updated 17.1 Rebecca to my desktop. The resolution is so high that I can barely read anything. I am using a 42 inch vizio HDTV as my monitor and it is connected with an HDMI cable. I have looked through all the settings but can not find any way to lower the resolution. Any help would be apprieciated.

If you can't change it there then you will have to use xrandr https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/xrandr
Good luck

Thank you once I installed arandr I was able to change it. 17.1 would not let me change anythning in the settings.
