Bug Description

displayconfig-gtk only shows me 4:3 resolutions for a secondary monitor even when I specify a 16:10 monitor (in this case an external 1680x1050 LCD panel). This happens if I choose a generic entry with the correct resolution or the exact model from the list. The laptop I'm using has a Radeon Mobility X600 GPU and I'm using the open drivers and the analog vga out to connect the secondary display. Ubuntu bug or open driver bug? Thanks for reading!

But it only shows up to 800x600 for me, and I have several other 4:3 modes in the cache.
