Public bug reported:
Latest update to Gutsy (downloaded sep 9 Australian local time)
introduced (I think) a new "Screens and Graphics" menu item and during
the process it reconfigures X.
On my laptop (GeForce go 7900GTX & 1920x1200) it detected the screen as
2048x1440 thereby creating a virtual desktop larger than the actual
screen size.
Secondly, I could not change the resolution to the correct setting in
the Screens & Graphics tool. The correct setting was in the list but
choosing it caused nothing to happen.
I resolved the issue by manually editing xorg.conf (the format of which
also seems to have changed) and removed all the listed screen
resolutions and replacing them with the correct one.
