Hello,

I too have the same problem. I looked into the link above but that discussion seems too complex or technical for my understanding. As a newbie user of Pine64, I expected the resolution to be set in the mate configuration tool. Could you explain how can this be done if it's possible at all?

My current debian installation is (from uname -a):
Linux pine64pro 3.10.101-0-pine64-longsleep #39 SMP PREEMPT Sat May 7 12:39:25 CEST 2016 aarch64 GNU/Linux


Thanks to Luke and other folks in the IRC channel chat room, I could change the resolution by
1. Modifying the /boot/uEnv.txt file:
In a terminal shell,
   sudo nano /boot/uEnv.txt
   optargs=disp.screen0_output_mode=720p60  <== changed this to 1080
2. Reboot
   sudo reboot
