thank for the help so far, I just can't seem to solve 1280 x 768 which
is max on my laptop Radeon 600. 

info from https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RadeonDriver



sudo nano /etc/X11/xorg.conf

I save the text below, reboot, then it lockup with a message on the
screen that reads cannot recognize 1400 x 900 resolution.  as you will
note below I only have 1280 x 768 in the xorg.conf
