I thought it would be really helpful to share our xorg.conf file along with the grahics card, monitor name and Distro.

1) just run this command in terminal
Code: 
cat /etc/X11/xorg.conf > xorg.txt

2) Attach the xorg.conf file created in Home directory here.


Graphics Card: intel GMA X3000
Monitor: LG 700E 17' CRT
Distro: Ubuntu 7.10 (Gutsy Gibbon)

xorg file:
Code: 
# xorg.conf (xorg X Window System server configuration file)
#
# This file was generated by dexconf, the Debian X Configuration tool, using
# values from the debconf database.
#
# Edit this file with caution, and see the xorg.conf manual page.
# (Type "man xorg.conf" at the shell prompt.)
#
# This file is automatically updated on xserver-xorg package upgrades *only*
# if it has not been modified since the last upgrade of the xserver-xorg
# package.
#
# If you have edited this file but would like it to be automatically updated
# again, run the following command:
#   sudo dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xserver-xorg
