you need to configure your xorg.conf to the resolutions you want your
lcd to display.

However on all the systems i use, the default driver works just fine
with the lcd

Here is an example of what your xorg screen section should look like.

Section "Screen"
    Identifier    "Default Screen"
    Device        "NVIDIA Corporation NV34 [GeForce FX 5200]"
    Monitor        "CM752ET"
    DefaultDepth    16
    SubSection "Display"
        Depth        16
        Modes      "1024x768_75.00"
    EndSubSection
EndSection

I would not recommend copying and pasting this section into your xorg as it may
cause problems
