Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: xorg

My monitor is natively 1440x900, and this was properly detected in all
previous releases and the alphas for 10.10. The most recent updates,
however, cause my monitor to default to 1280x1024. I changed the monitor
setting in the gnome control panel so that it will at least go to
1440x900 after logging into gnome, but the log-in screen still shows the
wrong resolution

This is the settings that it is loading as:
showard@s-desktop:~$ xrandr
Screen 0: minimum 320 x 200, current 1280 x 1024, maximum 1440 x 1440
VGA-0 connected 1280x1024+0+0 (normal left inverted right x axis y axis) 408mm x 255mm
   1440x900       59.9 +
   1280x1024      75.0*    60.0  
   1280x960       60.0  
   1152x864       75.0  
   1024x768       75.0     70.1     60.0  
   832x624        74.6  
   800x600        72.2     75.0     60.3     56.2  
   640x480        75.0     72.8     66.7     59.9  
   720x400        70.1  
DVI-0 disconnected (normal left inverted right x axis y axis)
S-video disconnected (normal left inverted right x axis y axis)


but it should be choosing 1440x900 (and had in the past)
