The problem is with the Intel driver. This is a known limitation:

No support for X Screens larger than 2048 pixels in either direction
before the 965.

xrandr seems to report the wrong maximum screen size (as 4096 in either
direction).

Turning off compiz is not an option for me as it's used for productivity
purposes. Spent all of last night writing a script with the limitation
in mind but am now unable to figure out how to replace Ubuntu's action
for the video out key.

Is there any documentation for doing this??
