Rickytoo, this bug was reported a while ago and there hasn't been any activity in it recently. We were wondering if this is still an issue? If so, could you please test for this with the latest development release of Ubuntu? ISO images are available from http://cdimage.ubuntu.com /daily-live/current/ .
If it remains an issue, could you please run the following command in the development release from a Terminal (Applications->Accessories->Terminal), as it will automatically gather and attach updated debug information to this report: apport-collect -p xorg-server REPLACE-WITH-BUG-NUMBER Please note, given that the information from the prior release is already available, doing this on a release prior to the development one would not be helpful. Thank you for your understanding.

Following the install, a single resolution (1280x1024) is available in Displays. My graphics card doesn't appear to be recognised reliably; sudo lshw -C video - most often produces no output lspci | grep VGA - most often produces no output one time they did produce appropriate output, at that time I was able to set resolutions appropriately, but subsequently lost it on rebooting. I use this graphics card in dual boot with Vista quite reliably. The one time 'sudo lshw -C video' produced output: *-display description: VGA compatible controller product: Radeon HD 4770 [RV740] vendor: ATI Technologies Inc physical id: 0 bus info: pci@0000:01:00.0 version: 00 width: 64 bits clock: 33MHz capabilities: pm pciexpress msi vga_controller bus_master cap_list rom configuration: driver=radeon latency=0 resources: irq:46 memory:d0000000-dfffffff memory:fe8e0000-fe8effff ioport:c000(size=256) memory:fe8c0000-fe8dffff sudo get-edid|parse-edid - gives: parse-edid: parse-edid version 2.0.0 get-edid: get-edid version 2.0.0 Performing real mode VBE call Interrupt 0x10 ax=0x4f00 bx=0x0 cx=0x0 Function supported Call successful VBE version 300 VBE string at 0xc0278 "ATI ATOMBIOS" VBE/DDC service about to be called Report DDC capabilities Performing real mode VBE call Interrupt 0x10 ax=0x4f15 bx=0x0 cx=0x0 Function supported Call successful Monitor and video card combination does not support DDC1 transfers Monitor and video card combination supports DDC2 transfers 0 seconds per 128 byte EDID block transfer Screen is not blanked during DDC transfer Reading next EDID block VBE/DDC service about to be called Read EDID Performing real mode VBE call Interrupt 0x10 ax=0x4f15 bx=0x1 cx=0x0 Function supported Call successful parse-edid: EDID checksum passed. # EDID version 1 revision 3 Section "Monitor" # Block type: 2:0 3:fc Identifier "HM204DA/DTA" VendorName "IVM" ModelName "HM204DA/DTA" # Block type: 2:0 3:fc # Block type: 2:0 3:fd HorizSync 30-142 VertRefresh 50-200 # Max dot clock (video bandwidth) 390 MHz # EDID version 3 GTF given: contact author # DPMS capabilities: Active off:yes Suspend:yes Standby:yes Mode "1280x1024" # vfreq 85.001Hz, hfreq 91.376kHz DotClock 159.360000 HTimings 1280 1376 1512 1744 VTimings 1024 1025 1028 1075 Flags "+HSync" "+VSync" EndMode # Block type: 2:0 3:fc # Block type: 2:0 3:fd Mode "2048x1536" # vfreq 85.000Hz, hfreq 137.020kHz DotClock 388.040000 HTimings 2048 2216 2440 2832 VTimings 1536 1537 1540 1612 Flags "+HSync" "+VSync" EndMode EndSection The identifier and frequency ranges are correct - thats as much as I can say.
