Hey,

I'm running a dual-head setup with the x.org-ati driver (radeon/r300)
and totem messes with the xrandr settings.

     1. I noticed this behaviour first when running a game in wine this
        switched my desktop to 800x600, 
     2. I switched to 1824x768 (1024x768 first head, 800x600 second
        head) manually,
     3. started totem, moved it to second head and switched to
        fullscreen
     4. exit the game, which restores the original resolution of
        3080x1050
     5. exit fullscreen of totem - which brings me back to the 1824x768
        resolution

The bug is the behaviour in 5. - I see absolutely no reason, that totem
messes with the xrandr info.

With the new branch of the x.org-ati driver it gets even worse. There
the second head is disabled, when I switch to full screen mode - so
basicly with the new drivers I can't use totem anymore for serious media
playing and I'm back to xine.

Disabling xrandr messing should do the trick (I think).

Greetings

Matthias
