I'm using a laptop with hardy and had problems with the resolution of an external monitor.
So i ran dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xserver-xorg.
Afterwards, keyboard layout was changed in xorg.conf from "de" to "us".
This had the effect that I could not login under X because my password contained special characters.
I knew how to fix this, but this could be a source of frustration for a newbie.
