Package: xserver-xorg-video-intel
Version: 2:2.0.0-1
Severity: normal

The new intel video driver doesn't any more show virtual screens, like the 
older i810-driver did. The driver seems to handle the desired virtual 
resolution 1824x1152 as a real resolution, which the screen doesn't support.
Already tried lower depth an different virtual modes. No chance.With old 
i810-driver all this works fine.

Quote from upstream:
"It got removed from xserver and has to be reimplemented (along with
xrandr-1.2 awareness) in window managers."

Closing this bug then. Feel free to open some wishlists against window
managers :)
