Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: gnome-control-center

The Apply button for the screen resolution config applet should be
disabled when the user hasn't changed anything. Or, alternatively, the
Apply button should not do anything if the user did not change any
setting. The issue is that having it enabled leads to the following
endless cycle:

1. Open the Screen resolution config applet from System/Preferences
2. Change the settings of some monitor
3. Click apply
4. Screens are configured correctly
5. Click "maintain configuration" in the countdown dialog that pops up
6. The config applet is still displayed, with the Apply button enabled
7. Not sure what I should do, so click apply -> GOTO 5

This actually happened to my girlfriend. She was able to setup her external 
monitor all right but she said the countdown dialog would pop up over and over, 
and that was because she clicked apply over and over...
This is on Karmic, updated yesterday.
