Fedora and Screen Resolution: Pt2

Turns out, the xrandr info is not persistent across reboots. The obvious solution was to add the needed lines to the /etc/rc.local, but xrandr will only execute if the X engine is online. The solution was to create a script and drop into the X window systems initialization sequence:
cat /etc/X11/xinit/xinitrc.d/setres.sh
#!/bin/sh
xrandr --newmode "1280x1024" 108.88 1280 1360 1496 1712 1024 1025 1028 1060 -HSync +Vsync
xrandr --addmode VGA-0 "1280x1024"
xrandr -s "1280x1024"
Notice the scripts path.
