Bug Description
I upgraded to Hardy on AMD64.
Screen resolution is set to 1280x768 at 60 Hz and cannot be re-set.
oxrg.conf file is gone for /etc/X11.
If I use the screen resolution dialog on Preferences and try to set it 1024x768, screens starts blinking to/from black. 75 Hz option is not available in any case.
I don't understand what happened to the :etc/X11/xorg.conf file, but it's gone.
I don't know what to do, Any help would be great!
Cheers,
GF

Some progress since then.
I created a new xorg.conf file and put some of the settings from previous file in there. screen/ default/ 0
I tired to use gcon-editor and saw that:
/gnome/
rate: "This key has no schema"
resolution "This key has no schema"
although the values are ok (75 and 1024x768)
The gnome screen resolution tool still doesn't allow me to set the res to 1024x768 ... screen flickers...
I will now try to use the Virtual parameter in the xorg.conf and report with included files and logs.
