** Description changed:

- My screen resolution is almost always changed when I start a new
- session. I usually leave it as 1280 x 800, but when logging on Gnome it
- becomes 1024 x 768 - once it even got to 1400 x 1050!
+ My screen resolution is almost always changed whenever I start a new session. 
I usually leave it as 1280 x 800, but when logging on Gnome it becomes 1024 x 
768 - once it even got to 1400 x 1050!
+ It helps just to log out and log in again.
  
  I'm running Ubuntu 7.10 on an Acer Aspire 5050-3233, AMD Turion 64 MK36
  (2.0GHz), 512MB, ATI Radeon Xpress 1100.
  
  Sorry for the lack of details (I'm just new as a Linux user :P)
  
  If it helps in any way, there goes below a copy of my /etc/X11/xorg.conf
  
  # xorg.conf (xorg X Window System server configuration file)
  #
  # This file was generated by dexconf, the Debian X Configuration tool, using
  # values from the debconf database.

  # (Type "man xorg.conf" at the shell prompt.)
  #
  # This file is automatically updated on xserver-xorg package upgrades *only*
