hello
i updated my system recently and gdm started with a resolution of 1920 x 1080 while my system is 1280 x 1024!?!?!?!
here is my xorg.conf:
Section "Screen"
Identifier "Screen 1"
Device "ati"
Monitor "samsung"
DefaultDepth 24
SubSection "Display"
Viewport 0 0
Depth 8
Modes "1280x1024" "1024x768" "800x600" "640x480"
EndSubSection
SubSection "Display"
Viewport 0 0
Depth 16
Modes "1280x1024" "1024x768" "800x600" "640x480"
EndSubSection
SubSection "Display"
Viewport 0 0
Depth 24
Modes "1280x1024" "1024x768" "800x600" "640x480"
EndSubSection
EndSection
Section "Screen"
Identifier "aticonfig-Screen[0]"
Device "aticonfig-Device[0]"
Monitor "aticonfig-Monitor[0]"
DefaultDepth 24
SubSection "Display"
Viewport 0 0
Depth 24
EndSubSection
EndSection

hmm, which of those screens are your default screen?
I know that, earlier, gdm used the first resolution listed in the screen section. I don't know how it is nowadays with these all stripped down xorg.conf's...

You have two screen sections. One with the 1280x1024 modes you defined, and one with only DefaultDepth 24. I guess your custom 1280x1024 screen is not used at all in your config.
This is not an issue with gdm, but an issue with either your display that doesn't provide correct mode information, or the videocard driver that screws up detecting it.

but beforeeverything was fine. what could have screwed things up? the update? or is it a hardaware issue?
