There is no display size information available for your panel.  newer versions
of kde and gnome actually use the DPI which is why this has started showing up
more recently.  I suspect fglrx probably just fills in values for the display
size.  As to why the DisplaySize you specified in your log is getting ignored,
it's because monitor sections are per-output on randr 1.2 aware drivers.  Since
your monitor section is not linked to a particular output, it's getting
associated with your VGA port which isn't currently active.  To link it to your
panel (LVDS), you'll need to either change the monitor's indentifier to LVDS:
Identifier      "LVDS"
or link it to LVDS in the device section like so:
Option "Monitor-LVDS" "Monitor0"
See the "Per Output Config" section of this page for more info:
