Resolution changed and can't be returned to original resolution.

[Tony K.]

I compared the xorg.conf files between the problematic machine and
another also running Ubuntu 6.06 which works properly and there was no
difference in the resolutions defined.  The only differences are the
hardware definitions which should be expected as they are two
different machines...

$ diff /etc/X11/xorg.conf /home/tony/Desktop/xorg.broken.conf
