You have been subscribed to a public bug: I use a Thinkpad R500 (1680x1050) with a docking station and an external monitor (1920x1200) attached to it. When I boot the Thinkpad and later attach it to the docking station, then the highest resolution in the arandr DFP1 list is 1600x1200. This means I have to reboot the system, as a boot right from the docking station gives me the 1920x1200 I need for the external monitor.
I also want to point out that this has worked well for a long time, until I had to reinstall my Xubuntu a couple of weeks ago.
