Ubuntu Shows Only 800×600 Resolution in Asus Eee Pc

I have Asus Eee PC and I wanted to install Ubuntu 12.04, when I used the bootable USB and tried it, the only available option for resolution setting was 800×600 which looks bad on the screen.

For upgrade resolution to 1024×600, I’ve managed to get accelerated X working in Ubuntu 12.04 with these steps:

Add repository
# sudo add-apt-repository ppa:sarvatt/cedarview
# sudo apt-get install add-apt-key
# sudo add-apt-key 0x4c96de60854c4636
# sudo apt-get update

Add =LVDS-1:d to GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT variable
# sudo vi /etc/default/grub

If you’re using PAE kernel, remove it and install generic kernel
# sudo apt-get install linux-headers-generic linux-image-generic
# sudo apt-get remove linux-headers-generic-pae linux-image-generic-pae
# sudo apt-get install cedarview-drm libva-cedarview-vaapi-driver cedarview-
   graphics-drivers

Change Option “AIGLX” to “Off” because 3D isn’t working
# sudo vi /usr/share/intel-cdv/X11/xorg.conf.d/61-cdv-pvr.conf
# sudo update-grub2

After doing above steps restart your pc.

vsftpd is a GPL licensed FTP server for UNIX systems, including Linux. It is secure and extremely fast. It is stable. Don't take my word for it, though.

This demonstrates vsftpd is a mature and trusted solution. To configure vsftpd server  with virtual users we need to enable PAM for vsftpd. apt-get install vsftpd libpam-pwdfile Now configure vsftpd to use PAM authentication vim  /etc/vsftpd.conf then paste in the following listen=YES anonymous_enable=NO local_enable=YES write_enable=YES local_umask=022 local_root=/var/www chroot_local_user=YES allow_writeable_chroot=YES hide_ids=YES #virutal user settings user_config_dir=/etc/vsftpd_user_conf guest_enable=YES virtual_use_local_privs=YES pam_service_name=vsftpd nopriv_user=vsftpd guest_username=vsftpd Now create users - You can either use a data...
