X can't detect your monitor's capabilities so is using defaults, which appear to not fit your monitor capabilities very well. ** Package changed: xserver-xorg-video-ati (Ubuntu) => xserver-xorg- video-mach64 (Ubuntu) -- low max screen desktop resolution with ATI Rage XL https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/437491 You received this bug notification because you are a direct subscriber of the bug.
