Failed to set configuration: Invalid mode '1920x1080@60'

I couldn't find the correct resolution of my Dell S2240 screen. When I list the resolutions it only shows me these ones. I'm sure this monitor works with 1920x1080.

I'm using Ubuntu 24.04 LTS on Wayland with a Nvidia GTX1050. Already tried change the nvidia-driver and didn't work. Could it be anything related to gnome-monitor-config?

Output from list command

Same here. Might be wayland and updated Ubuntu 24.04.

Anyone know how gnome sets these settings? Would be easier to just do this directly.

Also for nvidia it's probably easier to use nvidia-settings.

I have a iGPU that's intel (which drives the displays) and a dGPU that's nvidia.

Had the same problem. You have to use the id value for the mode parameter, so instead of 1920x1080@60 try [email protected].
