This is still broken with E6510 with both mainline and Ubuntu kernels. I
got the information from Intel developer that they got some regression
report about the eDP patches, so they didn't send the patches to Linus
yet. Therefore the fix will be in only in 2.6.39 kernel (or
http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/drm-intel-next/current/).
Since this is rather severe problem, and from what I've seen the eDP
patches were tested in many iterations and not possibly the last one,
I'd suggest keeping this on radar as a patch to be backported to natty's
2.6.38, considering Dell is one of Canonical's key partners for Ubuntu.
