I grabbed the run file from the amd site. Completed that successfully choosing the distro specific option. Installed the 3 deb pkg files successfully. I an aticonfig --inital and I rebooted. My screen settings would only max out at 1280 x1024 but I should be able to run 1680x1050. Auto update said fglxr had updates. So I updated and rebooted(even though nothing actually said I needed to). After reboot I am still stuck at 1280x1024. I also noticed my refresh rate has the option of auto or 0.0. How can I get the full resolution back?

Because no drivers showed up in jockey. The propitiatory drivers are already installed though, so seems like taking a step backwards to get jockey working. Plus last time I tried the proprietary drivers straight from AMD, it did not cause this problem.OS: Kubuntu 12.10/Windows 8
