Hi, it may be useful to mention the video card is Radeon Mobility 9600, 
X.org is the latest from ports, FreeBSD is 6.4-PRERELEASE and excerpts 
from /var/log/Xorg.0.log follows:

(II) RADEON(0): Panel Size from BIOS: 1680x1050
[...]
(II) RADEON(0): Added native panel mode: 1680x1050
[...]
(II) RADEON(0): Output LVDS using initial mode 1680x1050
after xf86InitialConfiguration
(**) RADEON(0): Display dimensions: (330, 206) mm
(**) RADEON(0): DPI set to (129, 147)
[...]
(II) RADEON(0): Setting screen physical size to 444 x 277
