Public bug reported:

The siliconmotion device driver does not recognise a resolution of
800x480 (OQO 01+ native screen size) and insists on coming up in 800x600
mode.

The driver appears to be unwilling to accepts a modeline entry to
correct this.

Resorting to the vesa driver, recognises the modeline and will function
short term as a work around but the spedd of the native driver is lost.

There is a description of tweaks to the driver code on the oqo
unsupported web site that worked for Hoary and have sort of  worked in
each version since.

Is it possible to have this as tweak to the driver ergo for it to become
part of the distribution so that it just works ???

Hope this helps

Cheers
