Problem with graphic card, ATI Radeon 3600 series.


I have problem with my graphic card, ASUS EAH3650, a ATI Radeon HD card.

I'm running Ubuntu.

History:
--------

I had it working with my old CRT TV with the SVIDEO
out from the graphic card. When I connected my
LCD TV, the problem started. First didn't I got any
picture at all on the TV. It was totally black, but
the ATI Catalyst Control Center recognised the TV
and choosed the correct resolution, etc.

Then I started to change different configuration,
removed and added ubuntu packages and a lot of
different things, and now it's a lot of problems,
but I get some picture at LCD.

Todays status and problem:
--------------------------
1. I get only 1024x768 resolution on my LCD-monitor.
2. I get only 1024x768 resolution on my LCD-TV.
3. The LCD-TV has becam the primary monitor, so
before I login I see nothing on my monitor, and then
my primary desctop icons is on the TV, not on the
monitor.

I have not even succeded to solve problem 1, even if
I disconnect the TV and only use the monitor in
single head mode.

How I wan't to have it:
-----------------------
1. My LCD monitors resolution should be 1600x1200
as before.
2. The LCD-TV:s resolution should be 1920x1080.
3. My LCD monitor should be primary.

Does someone have any clues?

Logs, outputs and configs:
--------------------------

Aticonfig:

$ aticonfig --initial=check
Check: Found fglrx section.
$ uname -a
Linux fabbes 2.6.24-21-generic #1 SMP Tue Oct 21 23:43:45 UTC 2008 i686 GNU/Linux
