Here is an xorg.conf file which I used earlier when the issue was that the boot login screen was too large - this problem was similar to an earlier bug I reported on the same laptop, running earlier Ubuntu releases: Bug #296142. With the initial installation of lucid, only the login screen was the wrong size; then the screen was sized properly to 1024x768.

But now this split-screen bug has appeared. It appears that having xorg.conf installed doesn't affect the new bug, one way or the other.

BUT it should be noted that when I try to switch to a console TTY, the screen goes blank. Switching back to X with ALT-F7 DOES work however. Before the split-screen bug appeared this morning, console TTYs worked fine.
