      This was common in budget laptops 10 years ago. I had a Asus laptop with the same resolution and I have seen others with this resolution as well

        Here in Brazil, there are still a lot of laptops, monitors and tvs being sold with that resolution.

      Some old netbook I guess, or unsupported hardware and a driver default. If all you need is ssh, the display resolution hardly matters.

          Most 720p TVs (“HD Ready”) used to be that resolution since they re-used production lines from 1024x768 displays

            Ahh, I see, they took the 4:3 Standard screen and let it grow to 16:9, that makes a lot of sense 😃

            I am to young for knowing 4:3 resolutions 😆

        😆nice

        I just learned that this resolution resulted from 4:3 screens which got some wideness added to reach 16:9 from an awesome person in this comment thread 😊

          I had to check the post not logged in, weirdly I only see your comment when I’m logged in, but yeah, I (almost) only ever ssh into it, so I never really noticed the resolution until you pointed it out

        Which doesn’t sound like much, but if you have applications designed for 1024x768 (which was pretty much the standard PC resolution for years) then at least it would fit on the screen.
