Bug Description

Binary package hint: xorg

Running 9.10. My screen res was 1204x1024 yesterday. When started system today the res was set to 1024x768 and I can't change it to the correct res (I'd not added or upgrading anything). I tried editing xorg.conf and using NVIDIA tool but couldn't change to required res. I tried upgrading to 10.4 but still no luck. I have a LC FLATRON monitor.
