Running dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg solves the problem.

The problem is that enabling dual monitors adds a section in xorg.conf
(which I had thought was going by the wayside in Intrepid anyway), but
disabling dual monitors doesn't remove this section.  To apparently the
only way to go between one and two monitors is to reconfigure xorg.conf
and restart X every time, which makes it extremely inconvenient to use
external projectors and such.  (I'd personally rather use the old screen
cloning method, which allowed me to use maximum resolution on at least
one monitor, whereas now cloning gives me a max of 1024x768.)  Is this
unwieldy system going to be standard from now on?

always assumed when X starts
