gdm is happy with less colors more pixels. then gnome fires up and ruins everything
kill gdm and use startx get nice little X cursor, gnome starts and the res goes all stupid
im willing to admit metacity could be at fault here.

This shouldn't have anything to do with GNOME, but with your xfree settings. Take a look at the file /etc/X11/XF86Config-4. Once your video card and monitor can handle it, there should be no issue with switching down in colour and up in resolution.
