Louis, you said that this bug is "very low on anyone's priority list" but it affects me too and is a major nuisance. At home, I always boot up my laptop with the lid closed and an external monitor on. GDM fails to set the correct resolution, and the resolution is still wrong after I log in: I have to run xrandr to correct it. I believe that GDM (or the X server?) is failing to realize that the lid is closed and that the laptop display should be ignored (at least, that's the behavior I would like). Instead, GDM (or the X server) is choosing the highest resolution common to both the laptop display and the external monitor
