    Add Resolution 1280x768 on Media Computer (ATI 9550 GFX)

    I just posted about my Media Computer and the sharing problem I was having regarding the icons on the desktop. Now I have a bit more of technical problem.

    The computers hardware is:
    P4 3.0ghz
    ATI 9550 AGP
    1gb ram
    Kubuntu 7.04

    Linux does not recognize my TV's Resolution correctly, I have it hooked up from a DVI to HDMI cable. As of now its generating a picture that is too large for the screen and its getting cut off.

    When I used a Mac Mini on this TV I could deselect Overscan from the graphics to right this problem. When I used Windows on a computer hooked to this I had an Nvidia graphics card and it let me on the fly resize the screen till it filled correctly.

    If anyone can help me the resolution its supposed to display is 1280x768.

    I attached the Xorg.conf file, I have made no changes to it. I understand I probably have to install some drivers before any changes I make to it will take effect, trouble is I have no idea what drivers.

    Perhaps you should select the correct resolution?

      Perhaps I would if I could.

      It would be nice to see it as an option.

        Okay I went an installed the ATI drivers mentioned on Ubuntuforums, now the thing is defaulting to 1920x1080 because the tv supports 1080i. Can anyone here help me get this thing down to 1280x768?
