Package: xscreensaver
Version: 4.24-5
Severity: important

I have just bought a big external screen (1920x1200) that I hooked into
my laptop. After some fiddling, I got the resolution to work under X11 (I had
to use a newer -intel video driver).

But when the screensaver starts, it only displays its animation in a small
part of my screen. It looks like it's using the resolution 1024x768.
I don't know if it uses the resolution of my integrated display instead of
the external display or if it's simply unable to figure out the right
resolution and fallsback to another default.

DPMS works fine however.

FWIW, my screen is a DELL 2407WFP. 

I don't know if it has anything to do with "VESA modes" but the intel
driver doesn't seem to rely on VESA mode to work in that resolution:
