I saw this problem with Intrepid (9.04) on a Lenovo X301 with the Mobile
Intel GMA 4500 MHD (integrated), but I haven't seen the problem since
Jaunty (9.10). As a mobile laptop using I xrandr for different external
screens and projectors a couple of times a day.

The Xrandr applet has its quirks in 9.10, like putting the new
confirmation/roll-back dialogue under its own window, but it doesn't
crash the X server for me any more, which is fabulous.

Following an xrandr change to a larger size a lot of applications can
still act funny. Most notable is Firefox and Thunderbird, their auto-
complete drop-list won't work expect inside the original (smaller) pre-
xrandr screen size. Not sure if this is a ui toolkit issue or a
missed/ignored screen size change notification. But presumably not
related to this bug anyway.
