I have an older toshiba 1800 lappy. My monitor shows a 1" black border all around the display. I got it fixed using the 8.04 displayconfig-gtk - unfortunately that doesn't work with 8.10.
My lshw shows:

*-display UNCLAIMED
description: VGA compatible controller
product: CyberBlade XPAi1
vendor: Trident Microsystems
physical id: 0
bus info: pci@0000:01:00.0
version: 82
width: 32 bits
clock: 66MHz
capabilities: bus_master cap_list
configuration: latency=8
The specs on this display are:
Cyber Aladdin-T 128bit BLT Engine.

Any suggestions how to fix?

I've got the same problem with a Toshiba Tecra 8200. I increased the resolution to 1280x1026 by adding entries into xorg.conf - and now only have a 1" margin on the right ... still experimenting...
