[ubuntu-studio-users] I'd like to install the AMD propriety drivers to see if I can fix this prob.

[Alex Armani]

I am having a problem with my 64 bit Ubuntu Studio 14.4.1 installation on my laptop. It will only give 1o24 x 768 on my external vga monitor whereas Windows 7 gives 1280 x 1o24. I've got ATI Mobility Radeon HD 4250 graphics. How do I install the propriety drivers? tia, aha from Alex.
