[Solved]Catalyst 8.6 HDTV resolution incorrect HELP!!

Question

After upgrade from Catalyst 8.02 (I know upgrade has long been in the queue for me), I cannot get my desktop resolution up to the 1360 (?) x 760 (?)  (I forget the exact numbers but it was 13xx x xxx)  My xorg.conf hasn't changed.  I took a look at /etc/ati/ but I can't make sense of how it detects my TV.
If anybody has any suggestions please help!
*edit*
Just in case anybody else runs into this problem. I solved it by added Option "IgnoreEDID" "true" in the Screen section (xorg.conf).

Answer 1

From your Xorg.0.log:
(II) fglrx(0): DRIScreenInit done
(II) fglrx(0): Kernel Module Version Information:
(II) fglrx(0): Name: fglrx
(II) fglrx(0): Version: 8.49.7
(II) fglrx(0): Date: May 12 2008
(II) fglrx(0): Desc: ATI FireGL DRM kernel module
(WW) fglrx(0): Kernel Module version does *not* match driver.
(EE) fglrx(0): incompatible kernel module detected - HW accelerated OpenGL will not work
You have to quit X, then rmmod and modprobe the kernel module - you're still using the old one.  (a reboot would technically fix it too)
# rmmod fglrx
# modprobe fglrx
# dmesg | tail
The dmesg output should say you've successfully loaded the 8.501 driver.
