Public bug reported:
1. Install Gutsy RC with Alternative CD
2. Install GNOME
3. Login as new user
4. Problems:
a) GNOME panels are set to width in 1024 pixels
b) System => Preferences => Screen Resolution also shows width 1024 pixels
c) Actual screen resolution is 1280x768 (which is also monitor's resolution)
So panels are smaller that actual screen resolution and Screen
Resolution app also lies about it.
