Hello,
I have an AMD Radeon HD 6450 Video card. Recently there was an update in Ubuntu 13.04 for the fglrx drivers which enabled me to have dual monitor after a long time. However, my screen seems to be chopping off quite a bit of pixels on the right most side. I have tried to use the amdcccle command and increase the screen size, but it does not work.
Here is the output of lspci:
