I'm away from the actual machine, but I did just try it blindly and
checked out the output from the driver with dmesg:

fbcvt: Aspect ratio not CVT standard
fbcvt: 1360x768@60: CVT Name - Not a CVT standard - 1.044 Mega Pixel Image

intelfb: intelfb_check_var: accel_flags is 0
intelfb: intelfb_var_to_depth: bpp: 32, green.length is 0
intelfb: Initial video mode is 1366x768-32@59.

It looks as if something valid is coming back and the driver is setting
up the mode, but at this point I don't know if there is really something
on the display or not.  One thing that is disconcerting is that I asked
for 60Hz and it returned back 59Hz.  Another thing, which may be
nothing, is that second line where it says the mode is 1360x768.  I am
specifically requesting 1366x768M-32@60 in for my modeline.
Ah, okay.  The CVT standard will always round off the horizontal resolution
to 8 pixels so 1360 from 1366.
I will be able to test it more thoroughly on Monday when I am back in
the office.
Let me know if it works, but I'll still send your patch to mainline.

Tony
thanks!

Can you try first if any of these options will work for you:

video=xxxfb:1366x768M@60

or

video=xxxfb:1366x768MR@60
