Note for upstream: The screen resolution is not properly recognized
either on Fedora 13 and on CentOS 5.5 - in all cases the system tries to
start up in 1600x1200 mode, but in a Gnome system it's possible to set
the res. manually, then later install an xorg.conf file. On KDE systems
it's much more difficult due to the controls being off the screen at the
bottom.

The problem still exists for the Ubuntu 10.10 Maverick Meerkat alpha-2
live CD.

I now have Fedora 13 installed on this Averatec 3280 laptop.

See bug #495553 and bug #196142. Also Fedora bug 518907 for the current
status on this computer.

I would suggest defaulting to 800x600 when the res. isn't properly
detected by this driver. That is done with some other drivers when a
panel's res. isn't detected possibly - then at least installing an
xorg.conf file can change to the proper res.
