Martin, the patch for printing the panel mode to X log has been committed to 
mail list. Please check. Actually in my previous patch, I have added note that 
explains why I use entry 7. I think you have seen that.
Yes, in the function LXGetLegacyPanelMode(), we firstly check if panel is 
supported. If that is supported, we will check which resolution we should use.
But actually, the entry 7 is not used and reserved in almost every geode board 
in BIOS setting. So unless you set it in BIOS to use entry 7(that is to say ret 
value is 7), that will forcelly use my 1024x...@80. Otherwise, the 1024x...@80 
will not be used and will not affect your VGA resolutions. Please let the 
customer see the ret value with my patch. If that is not 7, the resolution 
failed thing is not caused by my patch. My patch is only for people who want 
use 1024x600 in panel mode.
Our geode platform certainly can support 80Hz refresh under some resolutions. 
The reason why the Xorg reports failure is because X server prunes some 
resolutions. That is not to say the geode can not support. Please understand 
that.

Thanks,
Frank
