Larry Jordan proposed the following answer:
Best thing is to check and see if there are (updated) drivers for you
video card and/or monitor for Linux. Check the manufacturer's web site if
nothing is in the Ubuntu repository anywhere. If you can get those, that'll be
the BEST way to fix it.
If that doesn't work out for you.... I'm not sure I like the way Ubuntu
seems to handle screen resolutions - I was more familiar with what I got
looking at this stuff in Fedora Core 2...
Having said that, I recommend looking at "/var/log/Xorg.0.log" to see if
there is anything in it that tells you where to begin (might have something
like 'video card supports, but monitor doesn't'... or other messages). Usually
anything major is in a line starting with WW (warning messages).
There are instructions to MANUALLY configure any video card and/or monitor
if you check "man xorg.conf" and follow instructions.
