It's still bad in Karmic (I'm now using the same Satellite Pro 6050 that
Caroline filed this bug concerning) - this is Xorg Server 1.6.2rc1 with
latest everything.

It's a very crusty old driver. I asked on the xorg mailing list about
hints and tips on fixing it, they suggested faking an EDID response,
which worked in a similar Trident bug. xorg is unlikely to fix it
upstream until someone sends a patch, which we could do.
