Adam Niedling, thank you for reporting this and helping make Ubuntu better. As per http://us.acer.com/ac/en/US/content/drivers an update is available for your BIOS (1.35). If you update to this following https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BiosUpdate , does it change anything? If it doesn't, could you please both specify what happened, and just provide the output of the following terminal command: sudo dmidecode -s bios-version && sudo dmidecode -s bios-release-date
Please note your current BIOS is already in the Bug Description, so posting this on the old BIOS would not be helpful. For more on BIOS updates and linux, please see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ReportingBugs#Bug_reporting_etiquette . Thank you for your understanding. ** Changed in: fglrx-installer (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided => Low ** Changed in: fglrx-installer (Ubuntu) Status: New => Incomplete ** Tags added: needs-upstream-testing -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to fglrx-installer in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1051354 Title: 1002:9552 [Aspire 4810T] Ati HD 4330 + fglrx + HP x23LED screen = wrong resolution Status in “fglrx-installer” package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Bug description: I have a freshly installed Precise on an Acer 4810TG laptop that has an Ati Mobility Radeon HD 4330 video card and an HP x23LED fullHD (1920*1080) screen. The screen is connected to the laptop but it does not find the correct resolution. The resolutions that it can find can be seen in the Xorg log (Modeline): https://launchpadlibrarian.net/116135375/XorgLog.txt The screen works fine with another Ubuntu 12.04 box that has a different video card (nVidia). WORKAROUND: There is no problem with the open source radeon driver.
