Thank you for your bug report, not sure that's a bug though, the changelog has

"gnome-control-center (1:2.32.0-0ubuntu3) natty; urgency=low

  [ Martin Pitt ]
  * Drop 109_screen_resolution_extra.patch,
    110_screen_resolution_package.patch,
    111_screen_resolution_vendor_fallback.patch, and drop
    screen-resolution-extra recommends. This isn't necessary any more with
    XRandR 1.2 capable drivers, and the proprietary fglrx/nvidia ones have
    their own control panels."

Seems the binary drivers support xrandr nowadays
