Can't disable 640x480

Bug Description

Dell Latitude C640 with the 1024x768 panel can only sync 800x600 and 1024x768

However, when I hand-edit xorg.conf to only have those modes for the display, 640x480 still shows as available, which causes problems with SDL games which try to set fullscreen (get wavy images)

Can you also check and see if the issue still exists on Hardy?

Thanks for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better. In the development cycle for Intrepid there have been some vast improvements in the open source ati video driver and we could use your help testing them. Could you please download the latest Alpha CD image of Intrepid and test this particular bug just using the Live CD? You can find the latest image at http://www.ubuntu.com/testing . Your testing can help make Ubuntu and the open source ati driver even better! Thanks in advance.
