Bug Description
Binary package hint: console-setup
The graphics processor is a Trident Cyberblade XP2 on my Toshiba satellite A25 S3072. After installing Ubuntu I cant set screen resolution higher than 800x600
I am a new user to Linux. Recently I decided to get rid of winXP on my Toshiba Satellite A25 S3072 laptop and install Ubuntu 8.04 Hardy release. After installing, the screen resolution is at 800x600 whereas the native resolution allowed on this laptop is 1024x768. I tried a few things including editing the xorg.conf file but I do not know much about linux and could not get it to work.
I would really love to use Linux but with this problem it is very hard to use because my 15.2" laptop seems to be a 10" one for now with 30% of the screen being black.
Thank you for any help that any of you can provide in this regard. I tried searching on google but could not find anything that could help me with this.
If this is a wrong forum for this issue I apologize in advance.

Please attach /var/log/ Xorg.0. log. For help about configuring xorg.conf I'd suggest the forums.
