The modeline is not 1024x1280.  The timings to the monitor
have not changed, it's still 1280x1024.  It's merely the advertised
desktop size that has changed.

   Also, you probably need to disable the RandR extension in order
for rotation to work.  At least in the case of the "nv" driver,
it interferes.


                        Mark.
