Ubuntu display setting not showing 4k resolution
By Michael Henderson •
I have just received my new two 4k monitors for my dell desktop that mounts an NVIDIA Quadro K2200.
EDIT: the correct model is Dell S2722QC 27-inch
The problem is that in the display settings, the maximum resolution I am allowed to pick is 1920x1080.
At this moment, I have 3 monitors connected and the output of my xrandr is
Screen 0: minimum 8 x 8, current 5040 x 1920, maximum 16384 x 16384

sudo get-edid | parse-edid
This is read-edid version 3.0.2. Prepare for some fun.
Attempting to use i2c interface
No EDID on bus 0
No byte reading on this bus...
Problem requesting slave address: Bad file descriptor
No byte reading on this bus...
Problem requesting slave address: Bad file descriptor
3 potential busses found: 1 2 3
Will scan through until the first EDID is found.
Pass a bus number as an option to this program to go only for that one.
128-byte EDID successfully retrieved from i2c bus 1
If this isn't the EDID you were looking for, consider the other potential busses.
Looks like i2c was successful. Have a good day.
