Make Gnome remember last resolution

[Ninjak2k]

Seems like such a simple thing to do, but I've been unable to get gnome to remember the resolution I set my display for. GDM loads at 1280x1024, which is what I want, but when I log in, my screen switches to 1024x768. I have to keep changing it manually everytime I log in using 'gnome-display-properties'.

There has to be a way to make Gnome remember the resolution I want, right?

Here are the relevant portions of my xorg.conf file:

Section "Monitor"

Identifier "IBM G74"
HorizSync 30-69
VertRefresh 50-120
Option "DPMS"
EndSection

Section "Screen"
Identifier "Screen 1"
Device "ATI Graphics Adapter"
Monitor "IBM G74"
DefaultDepth 24

Subsection "Display"
Depth 8
Modes "1280x1024" "1024x768" "800x600" "640x480"
ViewPort 0 0
EndSubsection
Subsection "Display"
Depth 16
Modes "1280x1024" "1024x768" "800x600" "640x480"
ViewPort 0 0
EndSubsection
Subsection "Display"
Depth 24
Modes "1280x1024"
ViewPort 0 0
EndSubsection
EndSection



Thanks,

Yeah, but your xconfig looks fine.

I don't use Gnome myself, but I'm going to hazard a guess that you'll find some ".gnome{whatever}" directories in your home dir.

Possibly there's a file in those that contains GDM session defaults.
