When you run system-config-display what shows as "Hardware--->Monitor Type". I had, what I believe, was a similar problem. Setting it to "Generic LCD Display--->LCD Panel (with native resolution of my notebook)" fix my issue.
I see that the native resolution is widescreen 1280x800. If you want to use that but text is too small, try changing Resolution to a higher number in System -> Preferences -> Appearance -> Fonts -> Details (gnome-appearance-properties).
