I had gnome-display-properties crash on dual monitors. It works now, after putting this in /etc/gdm/PostLogin/Default:

/usr/bin/xrandr --output VGA-0 --off
/usr/bin/xrandr --output DVI-0 --mode 1920x1200 --left-of VGA-0
/usr/bin/xrandr --output VGA-0 --mode 1280x1024 --right-of DVI-0

The first --off was crucial, otherwise whole X server would crash. (I have a peculiar monitor setup, but both are set to their respective maximum resolution.)

res-applet was of no help.
