I've got 1024x768 and initially the laptop didn't send a signal - a
reboot was needed. :-(

After the reboot with the cable attached, I'm able to disconnect and
reconnect without problems.

Nothing I do with xrandr has any effect whatsoever on the actual image
displayed which is cropped at the left and right edges by just enough to
stop the paragraphs being readable.

$ xrandr --verbose --output VGA --mode 1280x800 --auto
screen 0: 320x200 84x52 mm  96.09dpi

$ xrandr --verbose --output VGA --mode 1024x768 --auto
screen 0: 320x200 84x52 mm  96.09dpi

Using the overscan button on the remote also has no effect on the
display.
