hi all,
I've recently upgraded from 12.04 to 12.10 for the purpose of the integrated ATI driver with the intention to set up a fully functional XBMC media center. According to http://youresuchageek.blogspot.fr/2012/06/xbmc-install-and-config-howto-for-linux.html, ubuntu 12.10 is preferred over other version (either 12.04 0r 13.04) due to the integrated driver. However, I am having a hard time setting up the proper Xorg file for it to detect my projector/receiver properly. I seek your help.
(NOTE: Previously I followed the guide at http://youresuchageek.blogspot.fr/2012/06/xbmc-install-and-config-howto-for-linux.html and had ubuntu 12.04 working with manually installed ATI catalyst 12.9 working WITHOUT manually adjusting X)

Can anyone gives an insight as how to set it up to display at a proper 1080p@60Hz?
