Description Vittorio 2006-05-01 12:27:58 UTC 
Version:           0.2 (using KDE 3.5.2, Kubuntu Package 4:3.5.2-0ubuntu0 breezy)
Compiler:          Target: i486-linux-gnu
OS:                Linux (i686) release 2.6.12-10-386

In the Display settings, hardware section, there was the Display button that allowed to change your monitor resolution. It was already buggy, since only one resolution showed up in the drop down menu despite i put several resolutions in my xorg.conf file amd since it only provided a frequency of -15321 Hz (yes, a negative frequency).
However after the update KDE 3.5.2 released from the kubuntu team, that button is totally missing, both from the system settings and from the "configure desktop" option the right-click on the desktop.
So i cannot even see the available resolution because there's no "Display" button at all!

thanks for the help

This disappearance of this Display Button is tied to the problem discussed in Bug report # 135725, in System Setting, Monitor & Display error message "The module Monitor & Display could not be loaded. On my box the graphics card is ATI Radeon X850 Pro.  This feature worked earlier.

I have another box running KDE 3.5.7 (Nvidia) on Debian which shows the Display Button and shows Monitor & Display System Settings.
