Public bug reported:

Its an Intel® Core™2 CPU 6600 @ 2.40GHz × 2, with a Intel® G45/G43
graphic controller, and 3.8 GiB of ram.   There should be enough system
resources to support the higher resolution.  The OS isn't detecting the
monitor, and is using a default driver set at 1024x768; which is too low
to be convenient sometimes.  I've tried a couple of different
recommended fixes.  Installing driver add ons, making an xorg.conf,
attempting to select/edit a new resolution with xrandr.  None of these
worked.  I even tried two different Nvidia cards, both of which ran very
glitchy, and would either lock the system up, or not work at all.   When
my book disk is ran, it runs it in 1440 x 900 just fine... but when its
installed on the drive, the default resolution is the lower one.

Still, I like Ubuntu and its done very well for me on the whole.
Everything else is working just fine, as far as I can tell.  I even
installed Netflix and got it to work.
