Lost screen resolution in 5-5

Computer: Gateway profile 3
Have been running an older version of the os for a long time at 1024x768 auto detected.

With the new update  q4os-5.5-i386-instcd.r1.iso
It seems to think it only support 640x480 and 800x600 resolutions. So I guess it no longer correctly
detects the screen on my device. I am rather disappointed.

I have been using your software for years on these little devices, and yes they still get used.

Does anyone have any Idea how to get the full resolution back?

Thanks

You'll need to use the older Q4OS 4 version as the Intel GMA 950 has many issues with more recent Linux distros.
