With the older ATI cards, you cannot be using the fglrx drivers, they only work for the 9500 and newer I believe. You need to be using the open source ati drivers.

As per the original bug report, I believe the Screen and Graphics function does not exist in the final release of Hardy Heron. You need to change resolution from System->Preferences->Screen Resolution

There is a program built into Hardy called xrandr. I heard about a GUI for it, I think it's called grandr and is available in the repositories. You can try downloading and installing that to see if it help with the resolution problems.
