locking down Xorg resolution

[Arthur Pemberton]

Since F7, I have been unable to simply do a graphical boot with my
monitor off. Whenever the monitor is off, xorg ignores
/etc/X11/xorg.conf, and chooses its own incorrect resolution.

How do I lock this down so that I do not need to turn on my monitor
before every boot? The solution on such a "bad" boot is generally to
restart X using Ctrl+Alt+Backspace
