Comment (by pulkomandy):

 I can confirm that this is still a problem on my gm965 system (Dell
 Inspiron 1525). It seems a bit better than what's described here but there
 is still some mixup of video modes.

 What happens:
 - We take the native resolution of the exernal display
 - We try to scale it using the panel fitter for the internal display
 - But the panel fitter doesn't work very well for scaling down, resulting
 in strange things.

 Possibly this is not the only problem.

 On the external display I did not manage to display anything so far.
