Here is the the XF86Config that I use with XFree86 4.1.0 on my L100.
I am pretty sure that the key lines to get 800x480, are the Option "NoStretch"
and Option "overrideValidateMode"
lines because for some reason the X server is under the impression that the
LCD is actually 800x600 and so
it will complain if you tell it 800x480 without these options set to true.
