RE: lcd bottom of screen at top & top at bottom

until you start X the screen is correct?
Yes, the screen is fine until I start X. And if I configure in the little Linux
penguin boot logo, it's in the right place at the top of the screen too. And
it's fine after I start the Metro version of X. It's only when I start
XFree86 that I have a problem. I played with xvidtune a little bit and I
could make the black band smaller and move it up a little bit. But it
runs out of range before the bottom is completely off the top of the
screen. It's a slow process right now, because xvidtune crashes X
when I hit apply or test, so I have to just show the modeline and paste
it into the config file.

I remember a setting in XF86Config where you tell X to use the BIOS setting for the screen resolution. Because the problem you speak of is what I know when one use a false BIOS setting for the display.
I think I remember seeing that option somewhere.  I'll see if I can find it
again and try that.
