Comment 72 for bug 186103

As of today, there has been a regression: in the absence of an xorg.conf file, the initial resolution is again set to 1600x1200. It's possible to use the Monitors dialog to set the res. to 1024x768, but before that is done, the login screen's bottom panel is inaccessible, so that the GUI mode can't be set. I am now using xorg.conf again, but this is not a good solution, as it requires an expert to create it.

I'm attaching a tar file with a list of current packages, xorg.conf, and various versions of Xorg.0.log, with and without xorg.conf. Note that by the time I saved the Xorg.0.* files, I had already set the screen res with the Monitors dialog.
