Title:
  xorg fails to correctly detect Satellite pro 4600 and 6000 screen
  resolution

Status in “xorg” package in Ubuntu:
  Invalid
Status in “xserver-xorg-video-trident” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: xorg

  On previous versions of Ubuntu, dpkg-reconfigure allowed me to specify
  monitor resolution etc. With hardy, this feature appears to have been
  removed. I believe that will encourage better detection code, and more
  usable front ends for less technical users. Nevertheless, I am right
  now left with 800x600 on my Toshiba Satellite Pro 4600, which has a
  native resolution of 1024x768 with only option to manually edit
  xorg.conf.

  Steps to show bug: 
  Install a fresh copy of Ubuntu Hardy 8.04 on a Toshiba Satellite pro laptop.
  Observe the GUI gives maximum resolution of 800x600.

  Expected: 
  Resolution should include 1024x768 native screen resolution. This resolution has shown to work where screen resolution set manually.
