In catalyst i can get:

randr
Screen 0: minimum 320 x 200, current 1600 x 900, maximum 8192 x 8192
DFP1 connected 1600x900+0+0 (normal left inverted right x axis y axis) 640mm x
360mm
   1600x900      59.94*+
   1920x1080     60.00 +  59.94  
   1776x1000     59.94  
   1680x1050     60.00    59.94  
   1400x1050     60.00    59.94  
   1280x1024     60.00    59.94  
   1440x900      59.94  
   1280x960      59.94  
   1360x768      59.94  
   1280x768      59.94  
   1280x720      60.00    59.94  
   1024x768      60.00  
   1152x648      59.94  
   1024x600      60.00  
   800x600       60.32  
   800x480       60.32  
   720x480       60.00    60.00    59.94    59.94  
   640x480       60.00    59.94  


but with the open source drivers i can not get  (that is to say that xrandr
doesn't list them):

   1600x900      59.94*+
   1776x1000     59.94  
   1680x1050     60.00    59.94  
   1400x1050     60.00    59.94  
   1440x900      59.94  
   1280x960      59.94  
   1360x768      59.94  


With either of the free drivers, ati or amdgpu the highest res i can get to fit
on my viewable area is 1024x768 and that just sucks.

I've tried making a simple xorg.conf and added modelines for the above
resolutions like this:

xrandr --newmode "1600x900_60.00" 118.25 1600 1696 1856 2112 900 903 908 934
-hsync +vsync

xrandr --addmode YOUR_OUT "1600x900_60.00"

xrandr --output YOUR_OUT --mode "1600x900_60.00" 

I tried this with all the resolutions that don't show up in xrandr with the
free driver and for the results of that effort i get a blank screen.

Could you please provide the same resolution support with the free drivers that
my graphics card is capable of supporting.

Thank you.
