Current resolution is 1920x1080. I would like to adjust to 1600x900 resolution, but it is not an option in the Display Settings.
How can I set my resolution to 1600x900?

Use LXDE to change resolution of lubuntu,
Steps to be followed :
1)open up the terminal
2)Open up your default text editor hear considering leafpad from terminal
sudo leafpad /etc/xdg/lxsession/LXDE/autostart
3)Sample command would be like this
xrandr --auto --output DVI-1 --primary --mode 1680x1050 --left-of DVI-0
The commands explanation is as follows :
–auto : enables connected devices in their preferred mode
–output DVI-1 : selects the output device to modify
–primary : specifies the selected device as primary
–mode : sets a specific mode for the output device
–left-of DVI-0 : sets position of the devide to “left of” another device (DVI-0)
write a autostart file like this :
Now add your commands to the bottom of the file adding a @ before the actual command
@xscreensaver -no-splash
@lxpanel --profile LXDE
@pcmanfm --desktop --profile LXDE
@/usr/lib/policykit-1-gnome/polkit-gnome-authentication-agent-1
@xrandr --auto --output DVI-1 --primary --mode 1600x900 --left-of DVI-0
Reboot your computer to make changes effect.

Took me forever to figure this out. I had to use eDP1 in the places where you put DVI-1. DVI-1 is not a thing on my laptop. – rtconner – 2013-10-14T01:07:24.990
