I'm not sure whether my problem is related to the update of this package:

My notebook's screen resolution is 1280x800.  But when I rebooted this
afternoon (after several weeks), I had something like 1280x816.  GDM's
login screen had the options in the lower-left of the screen almost
completely off the screen.  Moving the mouse to the bottom caused the
screen scroll down (and up when I moved the mouse to the top).

The X configuration stuff all said the screen was 1280x800.  When I
adjusted the resolution to 1024x768 (which ended up stretch to 1280x800),
I aborted back to "the previous resolution".  Then the screen was finally
displayed with the correct 800 pixels high.

1024x768 is still displayed stretched.  I had previously disabled the
BIOS stretching so this came as a surprise.  Also,
gnome-display-properties seems to list resolutions not in xorg.conf
(where'd it get 832x624?).

Anyone else see this problem?  I'm going to bugzilla it if it's not known.
