Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: xserver-xorg-video-intel

After upgrade (or fresh install) from 10.10 to 11.04 we can no longer
change screen resolution from the default resolution of 1366x768.

There is a large Ubuntu user community who is trying to get the Dell Duo
to work properly with Ubuntu.  We have been successful in a number of
areas with Maverick, but Natty has a number of issues that used to work
in Maverick.  The most significant issue is that we can no longer change
screen resolution.  The Dell Duo is a laptop with a touchscreen and we
need lower resolution for the touch.  We cannot get this to work with
natty

We have tried all the different xrandr screen commands.  Running those
commands will blank out the graphics screen and lock up the system.

The Ubuntu Forum thread that discusses the Del Duo and its behavior on
Natty is located at http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1658635
