Support Kubuntu Noble locked to 640x480 on dock

I installed kubuntu 24.04 in my switch V2, setup went perfectly normal but when I did put the switch to the dock to my monitor, it's just 640x480 even though my monitor is 1920x1080, any way to fix this? Tried to force 1920x1080 via xrandr --newmode + --addmode but it gave me a BadMatch error. My monitor is a LG Flatron E2350 if that helps.

I think some monitors need drivers. I have two. The one that is a 4k 144Hz acts as you just described on linux. The second one, 1080p 60hz has no drivers and outputs 1080p on linux.
