I have a Dell D600 running Gutsy, upgraded from Feisty.
xorg version is currently 1:7.2-5ubuntu13.
xserver-xorg-video-ati version is currently 1:6.7.196-1ubuntu2.
My xorg.conf contains
...
Section "Monitor"
Identifier "Generic Monitor"
Option "DPMS"
DisplaySize 285 215
EndSection
...
/var/logs/Xorg.0.log contains
...
(II) RADEON(0): Output LVDS using initial mode 1400x1050
after xf86InitialConfiguration
(**) RADEON(0): Display dimensions: (285, 215) mm
(**) RADEON(0): DPI set to (124, 141)
...
Note that the Y component of DPI is calculated incorrectly!
xdpyinfo says
...
dimensions: 1400x1050 pixels (370x277 millimeters)
resolution: 96x96 dots per inch
...
So the specified dimensions, and the calculated DPI values, are not taking
effect.

ati radeon driver does not autodetect displaysize on Latitude D600, therefore
uses wrong resolution
