I just connect it and cold boot with Windows, and the resolution looks fine.
I forgot to mention, under Fedora, it is also difficult to get the
original resolution back afterwards. The GUI display tool detects
neither my screen type nor the supported resolutions. When I try to
set it manually - either through the config tool or by editing the
config file - and then log out and in, most often my changes are
reverted. After a lot of fiddling and logging in and out, I eventually
would get my original resolution back, without understanding why it
worked now and not earlier.
Right now, the display tool says 1400x1050, millions of colors, with
unknown monitor type and a nVidia Corp G72M [Quadro NVS 110M, GeForce
GO 7300].
Take care
Oliver
