The hardware does 4096x4096. gnome-shell does not.

Title:
Wrong maximum resolution for multiple monitors (Intel 945GME)
Status in “xserver-xorg-video-intel” package in Ubuntu:
Invalid
Bug description:
My netbook (Sony Vaio VPCW 115xg) has an intel 945GME video card
controller.
The built-in LVDS1 is 1366x768. The add-on VGA1 is 1920x1080. xrandr
reports the maximum resolution of screen0 as 409x4096. I'm pretty
sure that any horizontal resolution above 2048 causes screen
corruption. Tried under KDE and Gnome3.
The display properties settings dialog allows setting the two screens
horizontally (total res 3300 or so), which results in massive screen
corruption (machine hasn't crashed; console works)
xrandr reports (vertically stacked screens):
Screen 0: minimum 320 x 200, current 1920 x 1848, maximum 4096 x 4096
LVDS1 connected 1366x768+554+1080 (normal left inverted right x axis y axis)

I wonder if maximum horizontal shouldn't be 2048x instead of 4096x on
this particular hardware?
I've reported this under xserver-xorg-video-intel, but it might be an
Intel kernel driver bug. Stock kernel, opensource driver.
