Build-in LCD panel native resolution 1280x800

Description:
Lucid fails to detect correct display resolution 1280x800 and falls back to 1034x768 which is dizzy / ugly on that panel, fonts turn difficult to read.   Trying manually to raise resolution to 1280x800 using "xrandr": 

xrandr --newmode "1280x800"   83.50  1280 1352 1480 1680  800 803 809
831 -hsync +vsync

xrandr --addmode default 1280x800

xrandr -s 1280x800

Failed to change the screen configuration!
