I have this new hardware: Celeron Ivy Bridge on a B75 chipset, and a non-PnP Sharp TV/LCD connected via VGA1 port.

When finished installing, I only found 1024x768 and 800x600 as options, so I went through the cvt and/or gtf-> modeline -> xrandr process and was able to add the 1280x768 and the 1360x768 resolutions (@60Hz) my TV/monitor supports. I even made the .xprofile script for that. But the resolutions are not working right:

If I set 1024x768 or 1280x768, the monitor picks it as it should, but if I set 1360x768, the monitor picks it as 1280x768.

I thought it could be my KVM (although works fine on the same machine with Windows 7 and Windows XP), so I removed the KVM, and no difference.

Using fresh installed ubuntu 12.04.2.
Right:
"1280x768" 79.50 1280 1344 1472 1664 768 771 781 798 -hsync +vsync
"1280x720" 74.50 1280 1344 1472 1664 720 723 728 748 -hsync +vsync
Wrong:
"1360x768_1" 84.75 1360 1432 1568 1776 768 771 781 798 -hsync +vsync
"1360x768_2" 84.72 1360 1424 1568 1776 768 769 772 795 -HSync +Vsync
