Hi, Martin,
    No, this issue is not fixed by 2.11.8-11, we should add the appropriate mode line to out codebase.
    In a previous Frank and Rigo study, adding Modelines to xorg.conf(or using xrandr command) can let Geode support more wide-screen modes and can be recognized by gnome-display-properties applet. So the baseline is that geode can support wide-screen resolutions.
    In our current code, there is a bug that will filter out the modelines adding to xorg.conf. We need to let driver kindly pass these new modes to the gnome. Details in git commit code below:

    We still need to research...

Thanks,
Hunk Cui
