Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: xorg

karmic koala alpha 5:

I have a Dell Latitude D820 laptop, with a screen resolution of 1920x1200
But after logging in in Gnome, the resolution is 1680x1050.
Using the nvidia settings tools, I can choose "Auto" and then Apply, and then the native resolution of  1920x1600 is set.
the button Save to X configuration fle doesn;t work, because apparently there is no xorg.conf file.

Expected behaviour: X should detect the correct screen resolution of
1920x1200 so there should be no need to run the nvidia settings tools
everytime.
