I gave up on using the tools provided and made a XF86Config by hand
(used the chipset suggested by xf86cfg), tested it with XFree86
-xf86config <filename> until I had something that met my needs.
Actually if I had done it like that to start with I probably would saved
myself a lot of time.
Thanks to you and Vince for helping me out.
For those interested, here's a copy of my XF86Config-4 for the LCD Panel
on a Compaq Armada M300. It still needs some polishing, but it does
work. Sorry to be so elaborate about the description: I hope that will
make it easier for the next person to find what he needs.
