/etc/X11/xorg.conf is the ultimate screen definition file if that's any help.
Get the screen properties from the manufacturers website, and look for the
following sections:
Section "Monitor"
Identifier "Generic Monitor"
Option "DPMS"
HorizSync 28-96
VertRefresh 43-60
EndSection
Section "Screen"
Identifier "Screen 0"
Device "Graphics Adapter 0"
Monitor "Generic Monitor"
DefaultDepth 24
SubSection "Display"
Depth 24
Modes "1400x1024" "1280x1024" "1024x768" "800x600"
EndSubSection
EndSection
You'll be wanting to change the HorizSync, VertRefresh and Modes in the above
section to support your lappie.
