Thank you! I installed that and had to reboot after modprobe (ofcourse 8^().

That problem is now resolved. I get 1920 x 1200 (16:10) (for Hewlett 
Packard 24" Display) Yeah!


but , I don't understand the following (NOT important though)
  modprobe radeon
modprobe: FATAL: Module radeon not found in directory 
/lib/modules/3.10.0-862.el7.x86_64

# grep radeon /var/log/Xorg.0.log
