After further testing, it turns out that:

1) Whether I use -amd or -geode, they still need to be specified in
xorg.conf for the driver to be found by X. Otherwise, X reverts to
-vesa. I probably missed that earlier, simply because I've always used
an xorg.conf on workstations, to make sure I would get the right default
keyboard map and color depth (but leaving resolutions undefined).

2) Using -amd (the earlier 2.7.7.7-1 or the above 2.7.7.8-0ubuntu1 with
the backported libDDC patch), hosts booting from an LTSP chroot
correctly auto-configure. Using -geode, X simply fails to launch
completely. Here, it's a bit more strange since I'm pretty sure that it
worked a week ago, when -geode was initially imported into Hardy.

I'm curious as to whether others can reproduce the above behavior on
other Geode LX -based products?
