Resolution seems to have changed

Acer Aspire one picture has gone blurry. The first background colour is orange instead of green. Have been on to the display settings page and there is no option to change resolution.

    Hello, thanks for the reply. I don't have xp only linux. Its an Intel Atom processor N270. When I go to the settings page and click on display settings it tells me the res is 1024x600@60 but there is no option to change res.

If you have xp and open the display,at the bottom click on advanced and you graph hardware page should come up, look through all the tabs until you find res, hope this helps, if not please post back your OS and what happened with what you tried and everyone is more then happy to help you more.

    Please post your question again, post the,name model, I see
    1500 and 1520 but not yours,1505. You do not have to put processor,
    it does not matter,only the graphics hardware in you notebook.

    The reason I say this is because I have always had a linux driver
    for my cards so im not sure why there is no res option.
    But there is no linux driver,only a xp driver for your setup.
    I am surprised that you don't have any other problems,
    you installed linux on this and I don't think that there are drivers
    for all your hardware made for linux. I am not allowed to give you
    a win XP sp3, which you would be better off using, because there are xp sp3 that are trimmed down with all the garbage removed
    to run fast on a slow processor.Not that your is slow, but its not
    top of the line either. But if you did install xp you would have access to all the drivers for your system. You could take a name
    and put it in google and search. Hope you get this worked out.
    And--KATZ --to you,good luck with it.

Everytime i put a picture for the background on the desktop it doesnt come out clear its all fuzzy/blurry anyone know what's happenin?

It's because your resolution(size) of your desktop is larger than the resolution(size) of the picture. If for example you are running a resolution of 1280x1024 then a picture with the dimentions of 1280x1024 would fit perfectly and not be stretched. See my tip on setting the desktop background here for further details: http://www.fixya.com/support/r6775332-change_desktop_background_image

If you want a smaller image to be centered and not stretched then right click on your desktop and go to Properties. Then click on the Desktop tab. To the middle right there is a heading that says Position. Click the little selection to Center. This will center a smaller image instead of making it all blurry and stretched.

Why i can change my desktop background for acer D255/aspire one

Select the picture you would like to be your desktop background/wallpaper.

Then right click on it and Select the option to Set as Desktop background.

Remember to find a picture that is for the resolution of your screen to get a clear un-stretched picture.

Colour blending problems.

Try updating your video card drivers as well as your monitor drivers and see if all the resolutions work at that point. If they work then everything is good to go, if it doesn't work then try another working monitor and if you still have the color blending problems then the video card is faulty.
