Anyway, as per comment #5, resolution switching from the command line seems to be working ok, so that suggests it's a bug in the Screen Resolution applet, but without a backtrace it's hard to begin troubleshooting on this one. The network failure makes me suspect a kernel issue, but more investigation would be needed on that angle to be sure.
