Public bug reported:

When trying to use gnome-display-properties either through 
System->Preferences->Monitors or through command typed into terminal, it always 
displays: "Could not get screen information, RANDR extension is too old (must 
be at least 1.2)" in a pop-up window.  When invoked from the command line, I 
also get the following messages in the terminal window:
"(gnome-display-properties:6825): Gtk-WARNING **: Ignoring the separator 
setting"

"(gnome-display-properties:6825): Gtk-WARNING **: No object called: "

I typed "xrandr -v" and get:
xrandr program version       1.3.2
Server reports RandR version 1.1

When I try apt-get install x11-xserver-utils (which is supposed to
contain xrandr) it tells me it is already at the current version.
