Good to know, so your monitor probably does not have 1280x1024 as a
preferred mode and thus the driver does not use by default.
The distortion could be related to a i9xx bug in 2.1. I think it
appeared in 2.0.0-6. Does the problem go away if you try 2.0.0-5 or
latest upstream git? FYI, 2.0.0-5 is available at
http://snapshot.debian.net/archive/2007/06/22/debian/pool/main/x/xserver-xorg-video-intel/

According to the xrandr output below, it might be 108 or 135MHz instead
of 75.

Possibly the same "border" bug as above, 2.0.0-5 or latest git might help.
I'll see if we can package a new snapshot in the near future.

I don't see any preferred mode here (marked with a + or a *, I never
remember). Does xrandr *without --verbose* help?
