nope, that's a different issue, yours is pretty simple :)
this is from xserver-xorg.postinst:
-----------------
# special cases to no run xresprobe on this combinantion and set a sane
known default
if which dmidecode >/dev/null 2>&1; then
if [ "$ARCH" != "ia64" ]; then
if [ "$DEVICE_DRIVER" = "i810" ]; then
if [ "$DEVICE_IDENTIFIER" = "Intel Corporation 82852/855GM
Integrated Graphics Device" ] && \
[ -n "$(dmidecode | grep NCR)" ]; then
PROBE_DUMP="$(echo -e "res: 800x600\nid: 3M Touchscreen")"
fi
if [ "$DEVICE_IDENTIFIER" = "Intel Corporation
82845G/GL[Brookdale-G]/GE Chipset Integrated Graphics De
vice" ] && \
[ -n "$(dmidecode | grep IBM)" ]; then
PROBE_DUMP="$(echo -e "res: 1024x768\nid: Elographic Screen")"
fi
fi
fi
fi
------------
that's why you get the Elographic Screen with a crappy resolution...
