 Actually I did use reportbug, but it didn't show me the bug report
 because it is against xserver-common, not xserver-xfree86.

Oh; I thought reportbug showed you all reports against the source
package these days.

Of course, as you noted, this is a prodigious number of bug reports in
the case of XFree86.

 Even then, I could have missed the report.

I suggest the f (filter) feature of reportbug.  It's really the *only*
way navigate the dizzying number of xfree86 bug reports.

 Sorry about the duplicate.

No problem, you've got advice for next time.  :)

 It isn't obvious (for me at least) how to configure my LCD display
 at its native resolution of 1400x1050 using debconf.
 
 Doing a web search seems to indicate that these settings are required:
 
 HorizSync   30-82
 VertRefresh 50-100
 Modeline 1400x1050  120 1400 1518 1635 1752   1050 1055 1063 1094 
 -hsync -vsync
 
 I wouldn't know how to verify if these are optimal values, but they
 do seem to work.

This bug has already been filed.  In the future, please use reportbug to
help avoid filing duplicate reports.
