ASUS 1001p netbook with 1024x600 internal resolution. When I connect an external monitor (resolution 1680x1050) while X starts the resolution drops to VGA. In that case (IIRC), the display applet or grandr will later not be able to rectify the situation. If I start X on the internal display only, connect the external monitor and then extend the viewable area with grandr or the display applet everything works fine.
