I believe I suggested xrandr in one of your double post's.
IT is a tool to force screen rates,and resolutions.As you already know ATI is behind in it's support for Linux....not linux's fault.Its ATI's. If you are just getting into Linux you would not know this...to let you know tho this has always been the case with ATI.Nvidia has been years ahead with support,and most Linux users probably use Nvidia.Another point with new linux users is that most do not now that Linux works on all hardware(just like any other os) out of the box,and will take consider amount of time to make it work( or not).Also with some hardware there is no support at all.Another rule of thumb is Linux will not work on brand new hardware.
If you decide to go with an Nvidia card please research on which will work (its common knowledge that new hardware might not work in Linux).Also right now Ubuntu is going through a transformation phase.What you are using is an os that is not based on an LTS (long term support).Hardy is a LTS,and I believe Ultimate Edition 1.7 is based off of Hardy.
Another fact is that I asked questions concerning what driver you are using,and have not responded.I would suggest you start fresh with a new install sense if you do have the wrong river it can be a real pain to get rid of it all,and will effect other drivers you install.
I just downloaded clean ubuntu 9.10 and there was an option to install. I wonder why ultimate edition doesn't have that option ?
You will have to ask Theemahn.He is the one who wrote Ultimate Edition as it is.
I was getting weird Errors
Tells others nothing.What were they exactly?
But same problem with monitor
It should be.When running from the live environment you are using a very generic gpu driver that woks on all hardware,but lacks any features.
