xrandr custom resolution guide
(this way you can create a bash script like this one (
https://t.me/UbuntuLocal/187))

First generate a “modeline” by using cvt
Syntax is: cvt width height refreshrate (refresh rate is optional)

cvt 1680 1050 60

this gives you:

1680x1050 59.95 Hz (CVT 1.76MA) hsync: 65.29 kHz; pclk: 146.25 MHz

Modeline “1680x1050_60.00” 146.25 1680 1784 1960 2240 1050 1053 1059 1089 -hsync +vsync

Now tell this to xrandr:

xrandr --newmode "1680x1050_60.00" 146.25 1680 1784 1960 2240 1050 1053 1059 1089 -hsync +vsync

Then you can now add it to the table of possible resolutions of an output of your choice:

xrandr --addmode VGA-0 1680x1050_60.00

The changes are lost after reboot, to set up the resolution persistently, create the file ~/.xprofile with the content:

#!/bin/sh
xrandr --newmode "1680x1050_60.00"  146.25  1680 1784 1960 2240  1050 1053 1059 1089 -hsync +vsync
xrandr --addmode VGA-0 1680x1050_60.00

I forgot the source of these text. I think google uncle can help you!
