How to change resolution?
I've freshly installed debian 9.6.0 stretch. My screen resolution is 1280x1024 whereas the display supports 1920x1080.
I've tried to resolve the issue following the post here, but I couldn't get past:
xrandr: Failed to get size of gamma for output default
Output for lspci -nn | grep VGA:
username@debian:~$ lspci -nn | grep VGA
01:00.0 VGA compatible controller [0300]: Advanced Micro Devices, Inc. [AMD/ATI] Barts XT [Radeon HD 6870] [1002:6738]
username@debian:~$
and for xrandr:
username@debian:~$ xrandr
xrandr: Failed to get size of gamma for output default
Screen 0: minimum 640 x 400, current 1280 x 1024, maximum 1920 x 1080

640x480 0.00

What am I supposed to do?
