Well this happened when I upgraded to Natty. Not only seems I can't change my resolution to higher than 1024x768 but it appears at the left and using only 70% of the monitor's width.

Could not apply the stored configuration for monitors

I tried logging in but in ubuntu classic mode, and i was able to change it, but that trick did not work anymore. (May this be a compiz problem?)

Anyways, here is my /var/log/Xorg.0.log http://pastebin.com/Ew4wwLab

and lspci -nn | grep VGA:

00:02.0 VGA compatible controller [0300]: Intel Corporation Mobile 945GM/GMS, 943/940GML Express Integrated Graphics Controller [8086:27a2] (rev 03)

I tried using xrandr for adding manually a resolution of 1280x1768 but without luck. Here is the xrandr output

Screen 0: minimum 320 x 200, current 1024 x 768, maximum 4096 x 4096
