I have tested the patch using the 6.06.1 desktop cd (and break=casper-
bottom). Checking for the LAPTOP variable fails for my TravelMate 8100
since laptop-detect is not reliable so early in the boot process when
xorg is first configured, see e.g. bug #40503. The DISPLAY_TYPE variable
was something I had seen in xserver-xorg.postinst and is not defined in
dexconf.

Anyway, by checking for the _Mobility_ X700 PCIE, chances are good
enough this is a laptop, and that the MonitorLayout line is needed.

On my laptop, the resolution was not correctly detected, and the desktop
cd booted up in 1024x768. But that is a much smaller problem than having
a dead screen.
