I had a short possibilty to borrow the D830 again. I've tried the Kubuntu Karminc beta 1 i386 LifeCDROM and the bug is still there.

After boot the latitude D830 (1680x1050) + Dell 24'' TFT via DVI of the docking station choose on first common resolution: 1152x864. So the fonts are way to big (see attachment 1-xrandr.after-login)

This part of the bug I've already seen and report with more recent hardware [GM45] Latitude E6500 + dvi in docking station + Dell 24'' TFT. https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xserver-xorg-video-intel/+bug/437173 :
[GM45] Bad resulution choice for mirror mode with two 16:10 displays

What's different from bug 437173 ss that when I turn of the LVDS, with xrandr --output LVDS --off, that the TMDS does not scale
to 1920x1600 automaticly not does xrandr --output TMDS --auto convince the driver to use the native resolution of the external TFT (that works in the GM45 case).
