Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: xorg

Initial install of Feisty Herd 4 on emachines M6810 showed problems with 
hardware detection in xorg:
  LCD is 1280x800, but X came up as 1024x768
  KCD backlight very dim on boot (Bug # 88691)
  Touchpad not fully functional (Bug #88692)

I had initiall reported this as a comment on #79016, but further
investigation has shown that my problem was caused by improper detection
of the monitor, not the graphics chipset.

The monitor was detected as a generic LCD:
