I've been having this same problem occur with Feisty, from herd 4 thru today's daily build (20070401) I'm running Kubuntu AMD_64. laptop-detect returns true. on herd-5,the last one I installed, dpkg --reconfigure xserver-xorg did correctly detect both the touchpad and the monitor, giving me the proper resolution.
