I have the same problem, I try to explain it well:
- My pc is a Laptop Fujitsu/siemens amilo pro 2010, pentium M 1600,
512mb RAM.
- Login screen resolution oversized: my max res. is 1024x768 and I can obtain
it with
"gnome-display-properties" for the desktop, but not for the login page.
- I have had the same problem with Ubuntu 7.04, 7.10, 8.04 and now 8.10.
- My VGA:
01:00.0 VGA compatible controller [0300]: VIA Technologies, Inc.
CN400/PM800/PM880/PN800/PN880 [S3 UniChrome Pro] [1106:3118] (rev 02)
- Output of xrandr:
Screen 0: minimum 640 x 480, current 1024 x 768, maximum 1600 x 1200
default connected 1024x768+0+0 0mm x 0mm
1600x1200 0.0

- My Xorg:
Section "Device"
Identifier "Configured Video Device"
EndSection
Section "Monitor"
Identifier "Configured Monitor"
EndSection
Section "Screen"
Identifier "Default Screen"
Monitor "Configured Monitor"
Device "Configured Video Device"

Section "ServerLayout"
Identifier "Default Layout"
Screen "Default Screen"
# commented out by update-manager, HAL is now used
# InputDevice "Synaptics Touchpad"
EndSection
- My Xorg log in attachment
- I tried to solve it adding a new subsection to the xorg.conf section
"screen" (I red these solutions on internet blogs and I think it worked
in my 7.04 a year ago):
SubSection “Display”
Modes “1024×768″
EndSubSection
But after reboot I can't reload the xserver (I can restart it in low
graphic mode only).
I tried to add:
Virtual 1024 768
in the new subsection but same result.
- The resolution in /etc/usplash.conf is correct xres 1024 yres 768
Hope this can help.
