Intel gma max resolution

[Xurxo Fernandez]

Hello,
I have a dell 630m laptop with an intel GMA915 videocard.
The card should support resolutions of 1680x1050 (the laptop is
connected to a LG 22" external monitor) but the Screen Resolution tool
just allows me to select 1440x900 (it has 1600x1024 but it looks awful).
- Does anyone know if the linux driver supports the 1680x1050
resolution?
- If it does how can I select it?

Thanks in advance
