Basically, the short answer to laptop support with the Geode X driver
seems to be that it needs a custom xorg.conf for each laptop, since it
cannot probe the display for ideal size.
Upstream developers have now documented this fact and provided command
examples for calculating display modes along with a sample xorg.conf
that shows how the command's result can be used. This will be included
in xf86-video-geode 2.11.13 to be released shortly.
** Changed in: xserver-xorg-video-geode (Ubuntu)
Status: In Progress => Fix Committed
