Not the driver
Hi,

It may not be the ATI driver. I had a similar problem but the default monitor was set up with minimum resolutions. I use A KDE linux and could select the resolution in control centre.

You may have to manually edit your etc/X11/xorg.conf

First let us know your screen type and distro.
