Yes, it could be a bad monitor.  I have one monitor I use HDMI with,
however it uses a HDMI to DVI converter at the monitor side, and it's
plugged into the HDMI port on my M1330.  No matter whats plugged into my
laptop at X launch time, I can plug in this monitor and successfully get
native resolution on it.  I have a 26" LCD TV that I use direct HDMI
with and it too gets proper resolution when I plug it in, regardless of
when X launched.  My M1330 uses the intel driver, and if yours does too,
then the likely culprit is the display.
