When no xorg.conf is used, it should also write the text of
this "internal" used inside Xorg.0.log file itself.
If you copy and paste this to a new xorg.conf, does it change
anything?
Thanks for the idea, but I just discovered the real cause of my problem.
I'm a longtime KDE user, so in my new F9 I just logged into my account
as always, and of course it has all the setup for KDE 3.5. Removing a
few lines from .kde/share/config/startupconfig (the ones to do with
randr) basically fixed the aspect ratio problem.
I still have the Settings->Display problem but that may also be related
to KDE 3.5. I set up a fresh test account and it doesn't have this
issue.
I'll keep poking ...
