1366x768 as a native resolution?

Does the MacBook NATIVELY support 1366x768. It must be 1366x768 and not 1360x768 or 1368x768. I have an extremely picky television that resizes the other two resolutions to 1366 and it looks ugly.

It technically should support that resolution as there are laptops sold with 1366 native and Intel chips, but I need to know for sure.

iBook G4 (Late 2005), Mac OS X (10.4.7)

It doesn't matter whether it can support 'up to', and what the OS can support (it can, by the way), it's up to the actual video chip. Most video chips require resolutions to be divisible by 8. (1366 is not divisible by 8.) nVidia 6 and 7 series support it, as well as the ATI x1k series, but I'm wondering if the GMA950 can support 1366x768 because it's a standard resolution used by the chip in other laptops, or if it'll default to 1360 or 1368.
