Bug#420679: wrong screensize



This is not limited to NVidia either; I get the same problem with the
intel-driver.

When I start X on my x60s from the dock (where I also have an external
screen connected), both the internal and external display will get the
resolution from the external display; before it'd use the resolution of
the internal display.  This is highly annoying, since the external
display has higher resolution than the internal.  So when I undock again
I'm left with a laptop that I cannot use in a sane manner because 25% or
so of the desktop is outside of the physical screen.

The only way to get it working is to start the X when undocked, then
dock and run xrandr --auto; that way the external display is properly
enabled at the same resolution as the internal display.
