Here is another data point. I just bought a new monitor, HP LP2465, The screen on this new monitor is not offset, either at the original resolution of 1280x1024 or the new 1920x1200. The old monitor is a Princeton VL1916. I didn't suspect the monitior because Windows displays correctly and you can fix it by changing the resolution back and forth in system/preferences.
I can still run some experiments for you as I still have the Princeton monitor and I saved the old xorg.conf file. It will just go slower than it would have before I installed the new monitor. Incidently, I had to edit the xorg.conf file by hand to get the right Resolution. Isn't there a configuration utility that will probe the Plug'nplay information for you when you change the monitior? Or read The .inf file that comes with the windows driver disk? I did boot into single user mode and ran Xorg -configure, but it didn't Give me a useful xorg.conf file. The monitor name wasn't found and all The resolutions were 0.

It couldn't hurt to try it with KDE. I'm going to bet it won't make a difference, but sometimes KDE works differently than GNOME, so it could be a useful data point. Let me know if you do this. When I have some time I'll try to do some additional research into this one. Seems quite odd.
