[Bug 377172] Re: gnome-display-properties silently broke all my hardware acceleration and movie watching

[Nathaniel Smith]

It's well documented that the 945GM does not work well with a "Virtual" setting of >2048x2048; the bug is that ATM, gnome-display-properties is happy to insert such settings into xorg.conf. So to fix this, either
  a) the intel driver needs to Just Work with weird Virtual settings (possibly by truncating them to 2048x2048, I'm not sure why it doesn't do that already; perhaps it would cause other problems)
  b) or, "screen-resolution-extra", whatever that is, needs to stop inserting such Virtual settings into xorg.conf.

I'm not sure how my Xorg.0.log helps with either, but, oh well, here you
go.
