What to do if items on screen are too small.
1. Install xrandr.
$ sudo apt-get update // update packages
$ sudo apt-get install x11-xserver-utils // install package which includes xrandr
$ xrandr – current //To see current resolution. My result is bellow:
jo@jo:~/$ xrandr --current
Screen 0: minimum 320 x 200, current 1920 x 1080, maximum 16384 x 16384
eDP connected primary 1920x1080+0+0 (normal left inverted right x axis y axis) 344mm x 194mm
1920x1080 60.00*+
1680x1050 60.00
1280x1024 60.00
1440x900 60.00
1280x800 60.00
1280x720 60.00
1024x768 60.00
800x600 60.00
640x480 60.00
HDMI-A-0 disconnected (normal left inverted right x axis y axis)
1.2. $ xrandr --output eDP --scale 0.66x0.66
But its ugly solution.
2. I need to change resolution to 1792x1008
2.1. calculate info
cvt 1792 1008
# 1600x900 59.95 Hz (CVT 1.44M9) hsync: 55.99 kHz; pclk: 118.25 MHz
Modeline "1792x1008_60.00" 149.50 1792 1904 2088 2384 1008 1011 1016 1046 -hsync +vsync
3. Add new resolution to xrandr
$ sudo xrandr --newmode "1792x1008_60.00" 149.50 1792 1904 2088 2384 1008 1011 1016 1046 -hsync +vsync
$ sudo xrandr --addmode eDP 1792x1008_60.00
Now 1600x900 added finally. You could check with xrandr
4. And finally we implement our new resolution.
xrandr --output eDP --mode 1600x900
