Same issue also: maximum resolution available is 1024x768 and should get 1080. Graphics card is a NVIDIA GT520. I have tried all version of the driver offered in "software sources" with the same results. The default nouveau drivers works at the expected 1080 resolution as do the NVIDIA drivers on 12.04 Precise Pangolin.

Ubuntu 12.10 under system settings displays it only allows four options 1360x768 being the highest. My video card is a G84(GeForce8600GT). There are 4 additional drivers available the all work but don't change the resolution. The nouveau driver caused the screen to flicker evert few seconds. I also looked in NVIDEA X Server settings but again the highest resolution is 1360x768 (it says NVIDEA Driver version: 304.4). I'm not sure which is leading - System settings/Display or NVIDEA X Server settings. The sceen interface is VGA which i have had to convert to DivX(?)with a converter plug because the card does'nt have a VGA port. Its a real shame because I have gone for it and wiped out Windows! Hooray! Any clues welcome!
