Thanks for the clarification, Tormod's.

Add the following line to the "Device" section of xorg.conf:
    Option "Monitor-LVDS" "<Monitor Identifier>"

Then add the following line to the "Monitor" section of xorg.conf:
    DisplaySize <WIDTH in mm> <HEIGHT in mm>

Replace the <...> with your own values.

Here is an example...

Section "Device"
    Identifier "Intel Corporation Mobile GM965/GL960 Integrated Graphics Controller"
    Driver "intel"
    BusID "PCI:0:2:0"
    Option "monitor-LVDS" "DCLCD"
EndSection

Section "Monitor"
    Identifier "DCLCD"
    Option "DPMS" "true"
    HorizSync 64.7-65.29
    VertRefresh 59.883-59.954
    DisplaySize 433 271
EndSection
