I have Ubuntu 14.04 and everything is working fine exept for the resolution, my monitor supports 1440x900 but in the options only allows 800x640 and 1024x768, I tryed the xorg.conf solution and it doesn't work

EDIT: Problem solved! I installed the propietary drivers from the "Aditional Drivers" option and now works :D

It often works best to set the resolution in the software provided by the proprietary graphics drivers if available. Use Nvidia X Server Display Settings or AMD Catalyst Control Center.

Nvidia Guide

By clicking the icon you will be taken to a dialog where you can choose which version you want to install, choose the recommended driver.

Set the resolution by running the Nvidia X Server Settings app... enter image description here

If you have an ATI/AMD card, then see the AMD Guide.
