Bug Description
I'm running Gutsy on a Compaq n610c
The graphics chip is a ATI 7500
lspci :
01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: ATI Technologies Inc Radeon Mobility M7 LW [Radeon Mobility 7500]
I'm using the built lcd laptop screen and I can not change resolution from the native 1400x1050. The "Screens and Graphics" tools shows my screen as "plug and play" and offers no other resolutions. I have tried upgrading the ATI driver to 8.42.1, but same issues.
Games like xgalaga will not correctly show in full screen mode (they are much smaller).
Everything worked fine in feisty
