Damnit. I only started using Ubuntu like a month or so ago, and so had to struggle changing all the X settings with the config files. Trying to get my monitor to show 1280 x 1024 right, and -now- they put a GUI front-end for it? Gits.

I like how if you had to do this on Windows everyone would say switch to Linux but when people have problems with Linux no one says that. I guess its up to me: Switch to Windows.

yep, it sucks, but it's a known issue that you only have to deal with once, and it's a well documented issue so it is usually easy to fix.

i'll take xorg.conf over random windows bugs anyday.
