Public bug reported:

Laptop 1400x1050, attached monitor, 1280x1024 - vertical arrangement. Monitor is above, laptop below.
I'd like to setup it like this via the Preferences-Screen. After such arrangement Xorg hangs.
It's only possible to recover by jumping to text console, editing monitors.xml, then kill Xorg.

It's possible to almost-arrange by reducing starting point of lower
(laptop) screen from 1024 to 1023, but after such operation windows
cannot be moved between monitors. Increasing to 1025 - is also almost
nice, because windows can be moved between, but after maximizing there
is no title bar accessible.

Horizontal arrangement works ok, so I assume it's a bug.

I add
monitors.xml.ok
monitos.xml.bad
top
Xorg logs
