Just tried the "post-release update" version and so far so good.
I think part of the problem may be the quality of the screen. This square 19 inch screen was bought for my wife who requested that size. It's a Samsung SyncMaster SA450 recently bought new on special offer for $90. My own screen is a 24" ilyama Prolite XB2472HD at 4 times the price. I can run that at 1440x900. Of course, there may be other issues like font quality and driver quality. When I bought the ilyama I read lots of articles saying wide screen were optimised for video and were often poor on graphics and text. The ilyama was stated as an exception.
