Question xrandr -s quietly fails after a certain point


"xrandr -s #" sometimes works, sometimes it does nothing. Once it stops working, it won't start working again unless I restart X (at least I can't find another way to get it working again). Here is the output when it fails:
Code:
xrandr -s 2 --verbose
 SZ:    Pixels          Physical       Refresh
*0   1600 x 1200   ( 406mm x 305mm )  *60
 1   1280 x 1024   ( 406mm x 305mm )   75
 2   1152 x 864    ( 406mm x 305mm )   75
 3   1024 x 768    ( 406mm x 305mm )   75
 4    800 x 600    ( 406mm x 305mm )   75
 5    640 x 480    ( 406mm x 305mm )   75
Current rotation - normal
Current reflection - none
Rotations possible - normal
Reflections possible - none
Setting size to 2, rotation to normal
Setting reflection on neither axis
At that point, the resolution is still #0 (1600x1200). I do have x11vnc running, and just woke up from a hibernate to disk.

Debian Etch. Relavent Packages:
Xorg 7.1.0-5
xfce4 4.3.99.1
x11vnc 0.8.2-1
hibernate 1.94-2
NVIDIA-Linux-x86-1.0-8774-pkg1

I see no output in /var/log/Xorg.0.log when I run the command. I also killed x11vnc, ran xrandr and it still didn't work (so it wasn't the actively running x11vnc).

I run x11vnc with these arguments:
x11vnc -usepw -many -display :0 -xrandr -bg -nobell

Any ideas?

I'm still having this problem on kernel 2.6.19 and NVIDIA driver 9629.

No one have any clue?
