After installation of Ubuntu 9.04 (before I used 8.10) I got a problem with my LCD (LG W2442PA-BF) as a second monitor to my Toshiba laptop. The resolution should have been 1920x1080 as a maximum but was 1280x768 indeed.
With a little help of my friend and this article (https://wiki.ubuntu.com/X/Config/Resolution) I managed to add this absent line into xorg.conf file.
I am not sure about all these numbers in the following script for Terminal but it works as a charm.
sudo cvt 1920 1080 60 # 1920x1080 59.88 Hz (CVT 2.30MA) hsync: 74.56 kHz; pclk: 193.25 MHz Modeline "1920x1080" 193.25 1920 2056 2256 2592 1080 1203 1209 1245 -hsync +vsync
sudo xrandr --newmode "1920x1080" 193.25 1920 2056 2256 2592 1080 1203 1209 1245 -hsync +vsync
sudo xrandr --addmode VGA "1920x1080"
Now, you can easily set it in Display Setting utility.
