I plugged my Dell s2009wb monitor into a Linux Ubuntu 14.04 computer and it says it failed all resolution tests and told me it will be set at 640x480. the monitor is capable of 1600x900 and all the resolutions that failed, worked on all Windows versions that monitor has been hooked up to, everything from Windows 98, XP, & 7. XP even included it's native 1600x900 resolution but Ubuntu doesn't like my monitor for some reason
How can I remedy this?

Make sure all words are spelled correctly.[/*]

Try more general keywords.[/*]
Try fewer keywords.[/*]
I searched the software center for both "dell monitor" and "s2009wb" and both got "no results" I go into software updates and additional drivers, it says "no proprietary drives are in use" and "No additional drivers are available"
setting/display only shows 640x480 or the other 480p 16:9 & 16:10 variants
Ubuntu worked fine with 1280x1024 on an older monitor that this replaced.
