It looks odd, but I can live with it. 1280 x 1024 is the resolution I am using with a standard 4:3 screen. When I connected a 16:9 widescreen to dapper about a year ago, I went nuts trying to edit xorg.conf to add 16:9 resolutions. None worked and, among other things, I experienced the same problem you report (depending on the resolution I was trying. I made a call to the screen manufacturer and the tech suggested 1024 x 768 (another not wide screen resolution) and it worked perfectly. I think there is some translation in the monitor that lets you pick 4:3 resolutions and it converts them to wide screen 16:9. Trying real 16:9 resolutions confuses this translation. Attachment:
