After deleting the xorg.conf file and all the backups -- and the xorg.conf.failsafe ones to try to force it to a useable state, leaving only the hand-edited xorg.conf it smears X completely. Evidently whatever changes have been made ignore the 'Virtual' keyword and attempt to use the virtual size as the physical size. The behaviour that I expect is to see 1024x768 window into a 1600x1200 space that drags when I move the pointer past the edge of the real screen. I've fallen back to Feisty and will check as time goes on to see if I can figure a work- around. I don't know how many folks actually use virtual screens, but I'm totally dependent on them. Can't even use Gutsy for more than a quick boot into it -- yep still broken -- reboot into a useable state.
