1440x900 resolution with Radeon HD 4200 card / VG1930wm Monitor
#2

Out of the box - not much for it

Its a bit older.. But it can be used and at a higher res..

The link just above is one of mine where I have a 4200..
I was able to set a higher res by modifying the "xorg.conf" file

Path: /etc/X11/xorg.conf -- Open with Admin Rights (Rt Click) or launch from terminal
Code:
sudo leafpad /etc/X11/xorg.conf

or from within terminal
Code:
sudo nano/etc/X11/xorg.conf

The below is a copy of my xorg.conf --- Note the Selection "Monitor" and  Section "Screen" sections.
*Notice I have REM marks "#" these are not used in my file, but may work for you.
You'll want to test as my resolutions/refresh rates/syncs may not match your monitor.

Also, setting a non supported resolution can/will render an unusable output. You would need to recover from a TTY session
Where CTRL+ALT+F1 will open a tty1 session and CTRL+ALT+F7 will return.
In TTY access file '#" the invalid line, save and 'reboot'.
