Maybe you have a wrong resolution in a Modes line of the file
/etc/X11/XF86Config-4.
For example, with the Mode line below, I think I would get the effect
you describe. Leaving out the resolution "1280x960", which is wrong for
my monitor, would fix it.
SubSection "Display"
Depth 24
Modes "1280x960" "1280x1024" "800x600" "640x480"
EndSubSection
I think I use /etc/X11/xorg.conf file.
the Modes line shows: "1024x768" "1600x1200" "800x600" "640x480"
Correct if you ask me...
On the other hand, could it be that GDM still uses the XF86Config-4
file and gnome the xorg.conf file? Probably a silly thaught. But the
XF86Config-4 file is still resident.
It's using the highest possible resolution, you need to get rid of
"1600x1200" in your config.
I had this problem about 6 months ago and this fixed it.
Kind Regards,

You're correct on this. Although it works, it's not the nice'd solution
because my monitor(lcd) supports 1600x1200.
In my Gnome-session I can use that resolution without a problem.
And why does gdm try to use the highest resolution? (displaying it wrong)
Thanks for the response.
