[Bug 339779] Re: GDM login window and X-session resolution differ dramatically

[Bryce Harrington]

** Description changed:

  Binary package hint: xorg
  
  After latest upgrades in friday the 6th, I run into some basic problems
  with X-sessions. GDM still detects screen resolution correctly
  (1280x1024) but the real X-session is only 1024x768 (and there aren't
  any other choises under "System" -> "Screen resolution" than 1024x768,
  800x600 and 640x480).
  
  I haven't fiddled with /etc/X11/xorg.conf at all since I've done this
  install (contents of the file later). Since GDM detects the display
  correctly and uses the correct screen resolution, this seems to be
  something that broke in latest upgrades (I logged out on friday and now
  on monday, when X got started again, the problem appearded).
