[Adrian <adrianswingler@xxxxxxxxx>]

I want to thank you and the Ubuntu community of creating a fabulous Unix
distribution...I've fixed this problem by buying a new Radeon HD 4550
Graphics Card...I popped it into the computer and booted up to a
beautiful 1910 x 1080 screen without any Ubuntu display changes.
Impressive.  However, this is a real bug as far as I'm concerned,  since
the prior release 9.04 had much a much better resolution with the exact
same hardware.

I'll sign up for the Lucid Beta when it is available.  No more Windows
for me.

Thank you, Adrian
