maximun monitor resolution is unsupported

[Max Payne]

My laptop monitor maximum display resolution is 1280x800, however Ubunto only detects a max resolution of 1024x768.

Windows vista detects the full monitor resolution.

I would really wish to see this issue fixed has there are more people in the foruns that have it and it comes from older releases and still hasen't been fixed.

At least a GUI way of adding undetected resolutions with a revert after 15 seconds unless user says so, would be nice.
