Xorg.conf and incorrect resolution detection
Saved by uncleflo on March 9th, 2012.
With the release of Ubuntu 9.10 (Karmic) xorg.conf was left largely redundant, at least, that was the theory. Something called EDID can be used for detecting a monitor's display capabilities, but it doesn't always work. This is usually down to monitor issues, or the video cable connected to it. If the EDID data cannot get through to the graphics adapter, then the graphics adapter knows nothing! For some reason Intel cards seem to be particularly prone to dodgy display detection, and my examples here will reflect that.
