Thank you for reporting this bug and helping to make ubuntu better.

If I understand your log files correctly you have one monitor attached
to a VGA port and one (a Iiyama PLE511S) to a HDMI port. The one on HDMI
only shows 1280x1024. Right? You say the PLE511S is supposed to have
1600x1200, right?

We would like some more information in order to be able to troubleshoot this problem:
- Does it make a difference if you disconnect the monitor on the VGA port? I.e. so that the PLE 511S is the only monitor attached.
- With only the PLE511S connected, could you run `sudo get-edid | parse-edid` and attach the output as an attachment here (you will need the read-edid package for this).
- Could you start ubuntu with nomodeset on the kernel command line ('Esc' on boot to display the Grub menu, 'e' to edit the command line for the selected line, add nomodeset after quiet splash). This may give you full resolution on both monitors. In any case, please attach /var/log/Xorg.0.log and the output of `xrandr --verbose` here.

Btw, it seems you are not the first to have resolution problems with
PLE511S: http://www.nvnews.net/vbulletin/showthread.php?t=80516
