I already filed this bug concerning the monitor, but didn't specifically place it under xorg:
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+bug/95548 The problem is that if the user has to alter the xorg.conf file in order to get proper monitor settings, the desktop effects manager and the restricted driver manager refuse to work because the user changed xorg themselves. If you switch back to an auto configed xorg file, then you're stuff with an incorrect monitor config. What we need is for the install process to present to the user the monitor settings it suggests and give the user the option to reconfigure if need be. The whole process is a mess as it stands. I hear that xorg 7.3 will put an end to this madness so we'll just have to wait and see. If I had a say in things, the driver manager and desktop effects enabler would be removed until xorg can properly configure itself.
