           Summary: 6.7.191/randr 1.2 issues on HP nw8240 (FireGL V5000
                    PCIE)
           Product: xorg
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: x86 (IA32)
        OS/Version: Linux (All)
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: medium
         Component: Driver/Radeon
        AssignedTo: xorg-driver-ati at lists.x.org
        ReportedBy: lure at ubuntu.com
         QAContact: xorg-team at lists.x.org


I am testing latest ATI driver prerelease with RandR 1.2 extensions support on
Kubuntu Gutsy with packages provided by Tormod Volden. See 
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/XorgOnTheEdge for package info.

HW: HP nw8240 laptop with ATI FireGL V5000 PCIE, 15.4" 1920x1200 laptop LCD
panel

There are two issues:

1. Resolution not properly detected
X was started in 1280x800 resolution. The error reported in the log:
(II) RADEON(0): Not using mode "1920x1200" (width too large for virtual size)

I have solved this, by adding "Virtual 1920 1200" to Display section.

2. Display size not properly detected > wrong DPI
After solving resolution problem, I got wrong DPI, due to wrong detection of my 
LCD panel size.

xdpyinfo reports:
  dimensions:    1920x1200 pixels (507x317 millimeters)
  resolution:    96x96 dots per inch

It is strange, as from the log file, it does look that proper display size
(330x210) is detected:

(II) RADEON(0): Max H-Image Size [cm]: horiz.: 33  vert.: 21

I have tried to workaround this by adding "DisplaySize 330 210" to Monitor
section of xorg.conf, but it does not look like to help.

I will attach all conf and log files
