[ltp] Thinkpad R50 : how could I find the good resolution for XF86Config ?

[pub@wigginghaus.de]

Hi Didrik,

the Knoppix Install on my R50 (1400x1050) left me with the following entries.  
I am not sure but IIRC LCDs don't have such a thing as a refresh rate - do 
they? Anyway, here is the part from my XF86Config-4, I am more than happy 
with this (although I have not installed the fglrx-drivers, yet, so my fan is 
always "on the run").
