Bug description:
  Binary package hint: hwdata

  I've just synced the hwdata MonitorDB file in Fedora for Fedora 8
  against Dell's published list of monitors on support.dell.com.  The
  Fedora hwdata package is used as the basis of the Ubuntu hwdata
  package, which is great.  I've updated my sync script to report Dell
  monitors that are missing from both Fedora and Ubuntu packaging now.
  Here's the list of missing packages from Ubuntu gutsy and hardy 0.200.
  These will all be included in Fedora 8 hwdata-0.207-2 starting
  tomorrow.

  Impact:  This will ensure users of Screens and Graphics, and Bulletproof-X can find the correct Dell monitor.

  Addressed:  Attach patch adds the listed monitors to kde-guidance's
  MonitorsDB, used by S&G and BPX.

  Reproduction:  Using one of the monitors listed above, attempt to
  configure it using S&G or BPX.  The monitor will not be listed.

  Regression Potential:  Near zero.  This merely adds some new entries
  to MonitorsDB, which is only used if the user configures using either
  BulletproofX or Screens and Graphics (in many cases, Ubuntu's defaults
  and xorg autodetection will "just work").
