yes I'm using 855resolution, on SuSE there is a package named
855resolution.rpm. Sources can be found here:

855resolution -l will list the vbios resolutions, you need to
pick up one you don't need and overwrite it with the native
panel size. If you suspend or boot the machine you need to that
again or add the call into the boot sequence
