[solved] Can't use 1680x1050 after catalyst update.

I just updated the system after the reboot my screen went to 1280x1024 resolution.
xrandr does not show 1680x1050 in the list anymore.
I checked the xorg.conf and it is included the line

# 1680x1050 59.95 Hz (CVT 1.76MA) hsync: 65.29 kHz; pclk: 146.25 MHz
Modeline "1680x1050_60.00"  146.25  1680 1784 1960 2240  1050 1053 1059 1089 -hsync +vsync

in the Monitor section

Generated with 'cvt' time ago...

What is going on? How can I fix?

Edit:
I found this ugly line in the X log:

(EE) fglrx(0): === [swlDalHelperAddCustomizeMode] === CWDDEDI_DisplayGetSetModeTimingOverride failed: 2

The latest catalyst has known problems with displaying at 1680x1050.  Try downgrading.

Where can I find old packages?

Why not?

Solved, I did installed the 7.11-1 instead of 7.11-2 that probably had a bug. Thanks everyone.
