Hi. I installed Ubuntu 20.04 on my droplet. I was following through with this blog. https://systemweakness.com/how-to-install-ubuntu-with-gui-on-digital-ocean-for-free-12301f464a3
It is working now for me, but my problem is Screen Resolution. Resolution support only 1364x768(16:9) I want to change it to 1920x1080 I am not sure how can I change it. I am connecting it via Teamviewer now. Please help me. Thanks.

etc.).Add the new 1920x1080 resolution with the following command, replacing
YOURDISPLAY
with your display name from the previous step:Finally, change the resolution by executing this command and replacing

again:If this works, you can add the commands from step 2 and 3 to the
