Just to sum up the status of some bug fixes which have been mentioned:

This commit adds quirks for some monitor models, so that the probed EDID info will be corrected. It will be included in xorg-server 1.5.

This commit fixes the "DisplaySize" option so that it will always override any probed EDID info and be used to calculate DPI correctly. This one will be in xorg-server 1.4.1 (and is already in Hardy). The fix might be considered for backporting to the 1.3 in Gutsy.
