X fails to startup with a large external monitor (1680x1050) attached. Removing
the monitor, starting X and attaching/configuring the monitor *afterwards* (when X is already running) works flawlessly. The machine is an Asus Eee 1000H laptop with a native screen of 1024x600.

An X log and the TTY output of startx is attached.

Intel driver version:
Intel 2.12.0 installed from http://www.scrye.com/~kevin/fedora/xorg-intel/

There was no xorg.conf present.

How reproducible:
100% (tried multiple times)

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Attach large monitor
2. Use "startx" when monitor is attached
