Bug Description
Binary package hint: xserver-
Ubuntu Intrepid beta upgraded from 8.04.1, all updates as of this post, running on an Intel GMA-950. Option "NoDRI" because of bug #277709, but it doesn't make a difference. Stock "empty" xorg.conf apart from that.

On Hardy when I had an external display connected through VGA on boot, both GDM and GNOME resolution was automatically set to the native resolution of the TFT monitor. On Intrepid it's always 1024x768. After login the resolution is set correctly.

This happens for me too on my Lenovo Thinkpad R61 (with an i965 though). With a second monitor just connected, the resolution of the gdm login screen on the internal screen is 1024x768, rather than 1280x800 as it should be (the external monitor I have connected is not widescreen, but it does go up and to and beyond 1280x1024.
This is with the latest updates for Intrepid and a completely standard basic xorg.conf (from running sudo dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xserver-xorg)
