I have a 15.6 wide lcd with 1366x768 resolution, and I wanted to display
full hd (1920x1080)
I could achieve it after long work with use of virtual console
by the way, the goal was to scale the screen to have smaller characters,
specially in decorations, and it works very well
the first part (where is the config stored is important because some
tests failed because of other config misplaced
last result if a script
xrandr --newmode "1920x1080" 173.00 1920 2048 2248 2576 1080 1083
1088 1120 -hsync +vsync
xrandr --addmode VIRTUAL1 1920x1080
xrandr --fb 1920x1080 --dpi 96 --output eDP1 --pos 0x0 --scale-from
1920x1080 --same-as VIRTUAL1
