Bug Description
this is a fresh install of feisty
i'm a long time ubuntu user
the default was some squarish resolution
but i have a 1440x900 monitor
the bug is that option wasn't in the list under System-
I did:
sudo vi /etc/X11/xorg.conf
There are a whole bunch of entries with a 1440x1440 option! This is bad! Such as:
SubSection "Display"
I simply changed the second 1440 to 900, rebooted, and then I could change the option in the preferences.
But it should have worked out of the box!
