  3) On my Lenovo X200 I tried to connect a projector and enabling it by
  using the screen resolution tool.
  
  4) Even though the X-server was retarted I could not see anything on the
  projector but now my compiz rotating cube had 8 faces. I tried to revert
  to normal mode again but now I couldn't get i right and was stuck in
  1024x768 and not 1280x800 as I wanted.
  
  I ran xrandr in a console which revealed:
  Screen 0: minimum 320 x 200, current 1024 x 768, maximum 1280 x 800
  VGA disconnected (normal left inverted right x axis y axis)
  LVDS connected 1280x800+0+0 (normal left inverted right x axis y axis) 261mm 
x 163mm
     1280x800       60.0*+   50.0
     1024x768       60.0
     800x600        60.3     56.2
     640x480        59.9
  HDMI-1 connected (normal left inverted right x axis y axis)
     1024x768       60.0
     800x600        60.3
     640x480        59.9
  HDMI-2 connected (normal left inverted right x axis y axis)
     1024x768       60.0
     800x600        60.3
     640x480        59.9
  
  Which is odd since the Lenovo X200 doesn't have any HDMI ports but only a VGA 
port so I tried to disable them with: 
  tjans...@euler:~$ xrandr --output HDMI-2 --off
  tjans...@euler:~$ xrandr --output HDMI-1 --off
  
  This worked and the screen returned to 1280 x 800. Now xrandr showed:
  Screen 0: minimum 320 x 200, current 1280 x 800, maximum 1280 x 800
  VGA disconnected (normal left inverted right x axis y axis)
  LVDS connected 1280x800+0+0 (normal left inverted right x axis y axis) 261mm 
x 163mm
     1280x800       60.0*+   50.0
     1024x768       60.0
     800x600        60.3     56.2
     640x480        59.9
  HDMI-1 connected (normal left inverted right x axis y axis)
     1024x768       60.0
     800x600        60.3
     640x480        59.9
  HDMI-2 connected (normal left inverted right x axis y axis)
     1024x768       60.0
     800x600        60.3
     640x480        59.9
  
  The only problem is that this wasn't saved after I logged out, so added some 
lines to my xorg.conf to disable the HDMI ports:
  Section "Screen"
      Identifier  "Configured Screen Device"
      Device  "Configured Video Device"
      SubSection "Display"
          Virtual 1280 800
      EndSubSection
  EndSection
  
  Section "Device"
      Identifier  "Configured Video Device"
      Option  "monitor-HDMI-2" "FakeHDMI-2"
      Option  "monitor-HDMI-1" "FakeHDMI-1"
  EndSection
  
  Section "Monitor"
      Identifier "FakeHDMI-1"
      Option  "Ignore"    "True"
  EndSection
  
  Section "Monitor"
      Identifier "FakeHDMI-2"
      Option  "Ignore"    "True"
  EndSection
  
  And now my computer is working as it did before I connected it to a projector 
and xrandr now showes:
  tjans...@euler:~$xrandr
  Screen 0: minimum 320 x 200, current 1280 x 800, maximum 1280 x 800

     1024x768       60.0
     800x600        60.3     56.2
