I'm new to Ubuntu, I recently installed 12.04.4 LTS. 

My display is not recognized by Ubuntu. 

Display: Kent Modular Electronics (KME) 29LR1901A51UN/1 connected via RGBHV BNC connectors.

Video card: Nvidia GeForce 7600 GT

Under windows I'm using 1280x1024. 

I tried different drivers using 'Additional drivers (jockey-kde / jockey-gtk), right now using nvidia\_304.116 via jockey-gtk: 'This driver is activated but not currently in use.'
Trying different drivers doesn't yield different resolutions, and in Displays my screen doesn't get recognized. Display Unknown. 

Via <https://wiki.ubuntu.com/X/Config/Resolution> I tried 'Adding undetected resolutions'. 

```
$ cvt 1280 1024

# 1280x1024 59.89 Hz (CVT 1.31M4) hsync: 63.67 kHz; pclk: 109.00 MHz
Modeline "1280x1024_60.00"  109.00  1280 1368 1496 1712  1024 1027 1034 1063 -hsync +vsync

```

after which

```
$ xrandr --newmode "1280x1024_60.00"  109.00  1280 1368 1496 1712  1024 1027 1034 1063 -hsync +vsync

```

This will add the mode to the list, but as TV-0 disconnected. I'm not able to use the mode.

```

    v: height 1024 start 1027 end 1034 total 1063           clock   59.9Hz

```

From here I don't know what I'm supposed to do. Having done this doens't change anything yet. After rebooting this TV-0 mode is lost.

Trying to add the mode:

```
$ xrandr --addmode TV-0 1280x1024_60.00
X Error of failed request:  BadMatch (invalid parameter attributes)
  Major opcode of failed request:  140 (RANDR)
  Minor opcode of failed request:  18 (RRAddOutputMode)
  Serial number of failed request:  25
  Current serial number in output stream:  26

```

Is this wrong?
