I think i965 is the better driver for your system, not i915. |

Which connector are you using? HDMI output of your laptop is most |
| 17 |
likely limited to 2560x1600. I checked and many Latitude ultrabooks |
| 18 |
have a displayport (of mini variety generally) output. If you use |
| 19 |
that connector you may get the resolution you wanted (you may still |
| 20 |
need newer drivers). |
