Here you can run this script file or click on the desktop icon, to generate a user report for upload GURU to locate what configuration file sets up the monitor pixel size.

Before making any changes, ensure you know the specific capabilities of your monitor, including its native resolution and refresh rate.

Open the Xorg configuration file located at `/etc/X11/xorg.conf`. You will need root privileges to edit this file.

Open the Xorg configuration file in a text editor. You can use the `sudo` command with your preferred text editor. For example:
sudo nano /etc/X11/xorg.conf

Within the Xorg configuration file, locate the Monitor section or add a new one if it doesn't exist. Here's an example of how it might look:

Section "Monitor"
Identifier "Monitor0"
HorizSync 30-83
VertRefresh 56-76
# Add the following line with your monitor's actual resolution:
DisplaySize 340 270
Modeline "1400xXXXX" XXX.XX XXXX XXXX XXXX
EndSection

Replace "1400xXXXX" with the desired resolution, and replace XXX.XX XXXX XXXX XXXX with the values for the modeline, which you can typically find in the monitor's documentation or online.

After making the necessary changes, save the file and exit the text editor.

To apply the changes, restart X
