Comment (by kallisti5):

 hrev43767 is reported to not fix the issue.  It looks as though while we
 pass the proper video mode as the "preferred mode", the lack of the mode
 in the displays VESA edid data is preventing it from being selected.

 The solution I think is adding the preferred mode to the list of available
 video modes (even if the preferred mode ends up being the only available
 resolution for a lvds display)
