  based on a suggestion from an earlier poster, i grabbed the nightly
compose of the desktop iso and booted from it.  when the system
finally came up, "xdpyinfo" still reports a display resolution of
2080x800, even though the display is really only 1280x800 (the phantom
second display strikes again).

  should i have expected that bug to have been fixed in this nightly
build?

rday

p.s.  i grabbed the 64-bit nightly compose from:

http://alt.fedoraproject.org/pub/alt/nightly-composes/desktop/

and am currently running this live, not installed to HD.
