The x11 tab is global settings only at this point. I think we can remove a couple of options on this tab, UseRandR is the only one I can think of atm.
I'd not be happy with removing that - XrandR solves some problems and introduces others - namely that the desktop panel applets/icons etc rearrange themselves for the lower resolution then sometimes don't rearrange back. Using XVidmode has the advantage that the desktop size doesn't change, only the screen resolution (which is what we want) but has the disadvantage of enabling the hardware panning/sideslip stuff, which is what we don't want.
More thought needed? Alex, comments?
