Right, and 761236 is looking like a dupe of a common Arrandale bug,
#745112. That in turn *might* be a sub-case of bug #761065 which
affects late-model cards and for which a kernel fix is being verified.
So, as to the disposition of this bug report: We've factored out the
single-monitor issue Andres had, so what remains is the multi-monitor
case, where total X width is >4096. As mentioned above in comment #15,
the X portion of that issue is essentially just bug #555641 and not
something we need to track here. The bug watch on the upstream FDO bug
appears to be focusing on that aspect of this bug.
After factoring out those two X bugs, the one remaining bit is that
gnome-display-properties is failing to check for screen width >4096 when
compiz is running. Basically, gnome-desktop must include a check that
target resolution <= max texture width if compiz is enabled.
