Dell Latitude D600 still shows the bug running karmic beta 1:
Displaysize is notauto detected and dpi set to 96 dpi instead of the
real 124 dpi.  With the size im mm adjusted to the artificial 96dpi.
xdpyinfo:

...
screen #0:
  dimensions:    1400x1050 pixels (370x277 millimeters)
  resolution:    96x96 dots per inch
...


Workaround: as karmic does not use xorg.conf in the default setup, I've modified /etc/kde4/kdm/kdmrc to
start the xserver with the options -dpi 124.

Sadly, it looks like radeon driver will never get it right :(
