How do I get 1366x768 resolution with dual graphics card ATI Madison Radeon HD 5000M Series and Intel...

I am on an HP Envy 14, and the proper resolution that I should be using is 1366x768. This is not an option and I am stuck on 1024x768. I am using Linux 12.04.
lspci | grep VGA:
00:02.0 VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation Core Processor Integrated Graphics Controller (rev 02)
01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: Advanced Micro Devices [AMD] nee ATI Madison [Radeon HD 5000M Series]
I've tried to add the resolution as a mode in xorg.conf but that does not work.
Please any help would be appreciated. I'm new to Linux and just got my dual boot working but this resolution issue is killing me.
I just tried using the xrandr command:
xrandr --newmode "1368x768_60.00" 85.25 1368 1440 1576 1784 768 771 781 798 -hsync +vsync
But I get an error:
xrandr: Failed to get size of gamma for output default

I have installed ATI/AMD proprietary FGLRX graphics driver. But there is another one called ATI/AMD proprietary FGLRX graphics driver (post-release updates) which I have trouble installing because it gives me an error and tells me to look at some sort of jockey log.

Well it's using the kernel module for the Intel card (i915), I'm not really familiar enough with ATI cards to know how you would switch to using the ATI card but a) the intel driver should support the native resolution one would think, and b)/var/log/jockey.logis the jockey log it is telling you to look at.

Try installing the post release driver again and only look at the new lines added to the log. You could also put the entire thing here paste.ubuntu.com and link to it. Alsotailis probably better thancatfor checking log files (displays the last ten lines of a file by default. you can use the-nflag to set how many lines you want to display).

Can you please post the output of
lsmod? And tell us what, if any, proprietary drivers you activated in Jockey (Additional Drivers) or otherwise?– adempewolff
Aug 20 '12 at 4:16
I have posted the output of
lsmodand mentioned: I have installed ATI/AMD proprietary FGLRX graphics driver. But there is another one called ATI/AMD proprietary FGLRX graphics driver (post-release updates) which I have trouble installing because it gives me an error and tells me to look at some sort of jockey log.– Megan
Aug 20 '12 at 4:26
Well it's using the kernel module for the Intel card (
i915), I'm not really familiar enough with ATI cards to know how you would switch to using the ATI card but a) the intel driver should support the native resolution one would think, and b)/var/log/jockey.logis the jockey log it is telling you to look at.– adempewolff
Aug 20 '12 at 4:36
Just tried to
cat /var/log/jockey.logand it is extremely long...not sure what I should be looking for :(– Megan
Aug 20 '12 at 4:41
Try installing the post release driver again and only look at the new lines added to the log. You could also put the entire thing here paste.ubuntu.com and link to it. Also
tailis probably better thancatfor checking log files (displays the last ten lines of a file by default. you can use the-nflag to set how many lines you want to display).– adempewolff
