@Andreas Schildbach: I've discussed this bug with a few other kernel team members. There's a few points we'd like to bring up:
1. So we have a good idea of what the hardware is reporting, please install xresprobe and run ddcprobe. It will spit out all the resolutions that the hardware has said are possible. 2. You say the bios starts up in 1024x768. How have you verified this? We couldn't think of a way to do this off the top of our heads so we would like more information. 3. When in 1024x768 mode, is the resolution stretched to fill the screen, or are there borders on the sides to maintain the original aspect ratio? Our guess is that your bios is emulating 1024x768 mode by putting borders on the sides. Jaunty may have had a default 1024x768 mode that is no longer present in Karmic. However, it should be possible to restore the 1024x768 resolution using xrandr. You would need to add a new 1024x768 mode using --newmode, and then add it to your LVDS screen using --addmode. Please provide us with input for the questions and proposed solution.
