I think I found the resolution thing. Went to lightdm.conf to see where its info is coming from, and found that it's /usr/share/dispsetup.sh. I believe that must have been set by the RPi version of arandr, and it does specify the resolution.
Please try commenting out that line 120 in lightdm.conf and see if it helps resolve the problem. Or maybe we have to substitute another source...
EDIT: just saw that old guy mentioned that file too

Re: MXFBPi Beta 2 testing
OK, new patch. Did DO's cleaning, commented out the line in lightdm.conf but left the file it pointed to (will remember to empty for Final), removed /home/pi/.config/autostart/lxrandr-autostart.desktop, removed the splash additions to /boot (though left one that gives me, at least so far, a completely black boot up screen):

md5sum RC.patch2 6d7a15b0aa9e7aeea4c79e5a8a4718b2 RC.patch2
Command to apply in folder where both downloaded patch and B2 image are located:
xdelta3 -d -s MXFBPi_B2.img RC.patch MXFBPi_RC2.img
