persistent xrandr with gnome session

Hi,...

my notebook screen is a native 1366x768 display and i like to have more desktop space with gnome (started from GDM under Xorg).

I'm currently calling xrandr manually from a gnome-terminal after login, which gives the desired screen:

# xrandr --output eDP-1 --mode 1366x768 --panning 1920x1080 --scale 1.40556x1.40625

How can I make this persistent?

I tried putting my xrandr line into "/etc/xprofile", but that gives me not a full screen.

+---------------------+---+
| gnome               |   |
|                     |   |
|                     |   |
|                     |   |
|---------------------+   |
| black                   |
+-------------------------+

A desktop file with the same line in "~/.config/autostart" also results in a non-fullscreen screen.

Any hints appreciated...
