Native mode on Dell E1505N laptop

I was wondering if anyone here knows how I can enter native mode for my display on my Dell E1505N laptop. The video card is: Intel® Graphics Media Accelerator 950. Thanks in advance.

    I'm not going to work with the video for a week or so, so consider the following as well-intentioned background info only ... you'll need to edit /etc/X11/xorg.conf to the settings appropriate to the screen and the GMA950. see http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=2708797 for initial info re /etc/x11/xorg.conf edits. You'll need to obtain some hardware info before changing xorg.conf as it's not a good idea to dial up parameters unsupported by the hardware.
