Description:	Ubuntu karmic (development branch)
Release:	9.10

apt-cache policy gdm
gdm:
  Installed: 2.20.10-0ubuntu3
  Candidate: 2.20.10-0ubuntu5
  Version table:
     2.20.10-0ubuntu5 0

When I use my laptop's built-in display only, the login screen displays
at the correct resolution (1280x800). However, when I plug my external
display in (1680x1050), the greeter uses a resolution that does not fit
either, (1024x768 I think), and shows on both monitors.
