I got the same weird[0] resolution which made apps mess around, and the same xrandr output. After some fiddling, I "fixed" the problem by commenting out the "VertRefresh" option in the "Monitor" section of xorg.conf. I'm not sure whether the value was incorrect, or just having any value screwed it up. This doesn't feel like a particularly elegant or permanent solution, but I didn't have the time to investigate. Hope this is slightly useful. [0] http://compsoc.dur.ac.uk/~jdl/screwed-resolution.png -- Jonny Lamb, UK jonnylamb@jonnylamb.com http://jonnylamb.com GPG: 0x2E039402
