Public bug reported:

When booting my plucky laptop with my external VGA monitor attached I
get a login screen in 11.10 that is 1024 x 768 mirrored. It's stretched
on the VGA monitor and displayed neatly in the middle of the screen on
the laptop. When I boot with no monitor attached the login screen
displays at the correct and native resolution of the laptop screen.

External monitor is an HP 2009v and the laptop driving it is an Acer
1810TZ. Their native resolutions are 1600 x 900 and 1366 x 768.
