Not sure which list is the correct one for this issue, but thought I'd
start here. I'm running Debian Sarge (currently seems to be a mixture of
bits from 2.6.1 and 2.4.2 - nautilus though is 2.6.3) and recently upgraded
my screen to one that runs at 1600x1200 from one at 1280x1024. Starting
into gnome resulted in a screen that was corrupt - but only if starting
from the main (non-root) user. Screen looked fine booting into kde or into
gnome from root. So likely source of issues was something in main user
directory. Sure enough using gconftool-2 to clear all keys from
/gnome/desktop/screen (where a reference to the old 1280 resolution was
lurking) fixed the problem.
Which component likely stored the info in that key? Perhaps something
should clear that key on startup if the XF86Config-4 file changes?
