Resolution problem in Gateway Notebook / Laptop P-6825

Asked by M.

I had had this problem before, with Gutsy, but I easily solved by adding to xorg.conf these lines:

in Section "Device":
 Option "monitor-TV" "TVOutput"

Section "Monitor"
 Identifier "TVOutput"
 Option "Disable" "true"
EndSection

Unfortunately, in Hardy this problem is not solved by doing that. Only the GNOME Login screen is fixed. When I log in the problem persists.

Here is a screenshot:

I've made some search and found a command that actually fixes the display but temporarily... it is not permanent:

xrandr --output TV --off

Could someone help me, maybe something has changed for hardy, some little detail ...
