[Bug 988935] [NEW] Monitor in standing (A4) position makes resolution quadratic

[David Fendrich]

Public bug reported:

In 11.10 I could run my monitor in standing mode under KDE, with the resolution 1050x1680.
For some reason, when I log in (both in 11.10 and 12.04), the resolution is always slightly off, so I have to go to the Desktop setup and fix it.

When I change resolution in 12.04, the desktop suddenly believes that my
desktop is wider than it actually is, and I see only the left half of
maximized windows. this was not the case before.

xrandr reports that I now have a Screen that is 1680x1680. This makes my
virtual screen larger than my actual screen.

After the screen gets too large, I can fix the problem by running xrandr
manually.
