I also had this problem, and resolving it was easy {in the end}
The x server uses the first screen resolution in the xorg.conf file for login
So make the first entry the one you want.
The biggest problem with hardy is that the flexible x configuration tools have
been dumbed down; e.g. displayconfig-gtk
Therefore I had to manually edit xorg.conf to add
Section "Screen"
Identifier "Default Screen"
Device "Generic Video Card"
Monitor "Generic Monitor"
DefaultDepth 24
SubSection "Display"
Depth 24
Modes "1280x1024" "(pitch" "1024)"
EndSubSection
EndSection
