Screen Resolution

[Robert James]

I have a new Compaq laptop that is operating in Vista at a screen  
resolution of 1280 x 800.  The card is a "generic PnP monitor on DVIDA  
GeForce 8200M G card.  When I installed Ubuntu the best resolution I  
can get is 640 x 480.  Apps are so fat they don't fit the screen.   
When I go into the GeForce drivers the "test" says they won't work  
with this machine.  Sure would like to know where to go from here.   
Can't seem to get a better resolution.

Thanks

Rob
