These parameters are meaningless for an LCD panel.  Leave them out,
and X.org will DTRT.  The wrong values will *not* fry your panel.

If you're having trouble getting the correct resolution to work, you
probably just need to run 915resolution to patch the BIOS so X.org
will detect the correct mode.

The best way to create "a pristine xorg.conf", by the way, is to run
'X -configure' (after running 915resolution, if applicable).
