If it is not economically viable to save the
planet, then the economic system must be wrong.

Saying that Israel is justified in assaulting Palestine because of
Hamas' rockets is like saying the UK should have bombed Belfast when
the IRA was active.                 http://stopwar.org.uk/

Title:
  Fn+F7 cycling gives external monitor incorrect resolution on Thinkpad
  x220

Status in “gnome-settings-daemon” source package in Oneiric:

Bug description:
  ## Issue

  Pressing Fn+F7 to cycle through monitor configuration produces
  unusable monitor configuration on external-monitor-only mode.

  External monitor is set to incorrect resolution when it's the only
  active display.

  xrandr output does not match resolution of external display that is
  actually set.  E.g., xrandr shows "1920x1080@60Hz",  but monitor
  status menu shows 1360 x 768 @ 60Hz, which it does not support.

  ## Environment

  - Thinkpad X220 (T61 also fails)

  -  External monitor attached

  ## Steps to reproduce:

  - connect external monitor to ThinkPad X220 (or X61)

  - press Fn+F7 to cycle through modes

  - on External Monitor Only mode, compare resolution of external
  monitor as reported by xrandr and the monitor itself.
