Hello there:

I am new in PCLOS 2010.07 and I want a little help.

I have a dell studio 1558 with a graphic card ati mobility radeon HD 4500. My flat panel (screen) has a 1366x768 resolution, but the ati driver only recognizes 1152x864. I tried some settings in the configuration window but nothing works. Can anybody help me?

Thank you for your time.

hello and welcome to the forum!

what driver are you using and from where did you got it?

have you updated your installation by opening synaptic, pressing reload button and applying all the updates?
