Your options are to either fix the EDID and supply it to the kernel in
order to override the broken one being supplied by the firmware; or to
override the screen size in xorg.conf.

Title:
[i945] [i945gme, 9.10 UNR] Acer Aspire One 8,9" has a broken EDID with
incorrect screen size for LVDS1
Status in “xserver-xorg-video-intel” package in Ubuntu:
Invalid
Bug description:
Binary package hint: xserver-xorg-video-intel
Description: Ubuntu 9.10
00:00.0 Host bridge: Intel Corporation Mobile 945GME Express Memory
Controller Hub (rev 03)
00:02.0 VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation Mobile 945GME Express
Integrated Graphics Controller (rev 03)
00:02.1 Display controller: Intel Corporation Mobile 945GM/GMS/GME,
943/940GML Express Integrated Graphics Controller (rev 03)
When running 'xrandr' the wrong screen size is reported:
Screen 0: minimum 320 x 200, current 1024 x 600, maximum 4096 x 4096
VGA1 disconnected (normal left inverted right x axis y axis)
LVDS1 connected 1024x600+0+0 (normal left inverted right x axis y axis) 451mm
x 113mm
1024x600 60.0*+
640x480 59.9
The size should actually be 195mm x 113mm
This will make a program like Moovida look terrible.
Running:
>xrandr --fbmm 195x113
will make Moovida work BUT 'xrandr' will report the same data (451mm x 113mm)

Kristian Lippert
