Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: xorg

Sorry for the generalization filing this against "xorg" but I've been
following bug 640807, and even commented there, but I see Tormod Volden
mentioned a few bugs where xorg actually generated "wrong modes". I
didn't however see any of those addressing the "identical" behaviour and
hardware so I decided to be lazy and let apport help me collect info.

I was finally able to get the Maverick RC Live CD to boot by pressing
F6, then ESC, then typing "text" (w/o the quotes), and then typing:

gconftool-2 --type bool -s
"/apps/gnome_settings_daemon/xrandr/turn_on_external_monitors_at_startup"
false

Then just typing "startx" (again w/o the quotes) I got a desktop with
the expected modes:

ubuntu@ubuntu:~$ xrandr
Screen 0: minimum 320 x 200, current 1680 x 1050, maximum 4096 x 4096
VGA1 connected 1680x1050+0+0 (normal left inverted right x axis y axis) 474mm x 297mm
   1680x1050      60.6*+   74.9  
   1600x1200      75.0     60.0  
   1400x1050      74.9     60.0  
   1280x1024      75.0     60.0  
   1280x960       60.0  
   1152x864       75.0  
   1024x768       75.1     70.1     60.0  
   832x624        74.6  
   800x600        72.2     75.0     60.3     56.2  
   640x480        72.8     75.0     66.7     60.0  
   720x400        70.1  

Due to limited vision it's difficult to continue this dialogue at the
default resolution. That however is typical and unrelated to this bug,
so I'll stop for now and report more once I can manually adjust to
1440x900 as I usually do. I just didn't want to make any modifications
before filing this bug report.
