Recently installed Trisquel 5.5 STS on my rig with AMD Radeon HD6670.
Obviously, no 3D-accellerated driver for it, so I installed Trisquel in VESA
mode. I presume, it is still running in the same mode. I can bear it as I
plan to use this rig for typing/watching videos.
However, I can not set any 16:10 resolution because there is no such option
in GUI (only 4:3 and 5:4).
I have tried to correct the issue by changing /etc/X11/xorg.conf and
/etc/x11/xorg.conf.vesa as follows (changes in bold):

Two questions:
1) Which file should I have changed?
2) What/where should I change in file to get 1680x1050 32 bit 60 Hz (LCD)?
Eagerly awaiting response.
