When I plug a monitor to my PC the monitors app doesn't offer the
correct resolutions to choose from and the only way to use it is to
select one well below of what the monitor supports. Randomly it offers
the correct resolutions for a little while.

I have experienced this bug in two Laptops one using a Samsung monitor
model number: lr23ws and another using a 40" Samsung HDTV.

I have read online that other people are having the same issue with
different monitors of different brands.

Ubuntu works perfectly on my laptop as long as I don't try to plug a
monitor but I have a Desktop  in which I simply can't install Ubuntu
because it doesn't detect my monitor and I cannot use my $200 secondary
monitor with my laptop because the correct resolutions aren't detected
neither.

I have experienced this bug since Ubuntu 9.10 and I have reported it
before, the problem is not with multi-monitor support but actually with
making work a single monitor at all. Not being able to connect a monitor
should have more priority than what little is being given.
