Please pardon my answering everyone in one email.
To Adam: I have not used my BIOS. The Intel 965 card on my Toshiba
laptop has no BIOS options. I can't even change the default scaling
from full-panel to off. It's really sad.
The OS has to do everything in this laptop, since the BIOS doesn't
have an option. The Windows drivers had a tool that let me set
"panel-only", but it only worked after I booted into Windows. Linux
has no such driver-management tool as far as I know.
To Jeff: Thank you for replying. I tried going through my
monitors.xml file, and there is not a single
<clone>yes</clone> line. Every config (including for the
800x600 projector) sets clone to no.
I tried the projector multiple times in multiple boots last night, so
I don't think this was a monitors.xml, specifically after using
extended mode and rebooting my laptop, and I still got clone mode.
To Matthias: thanks for the tip, but I don't have a monitors.xml.backup file.
