Bug#430885: xserver-xorg-video-intel: new intel driver doesn't support all modes of i810 driver
Hello Brice,
As I've mentioned on my previous mail (July 1, 2007 ) - I'm also having this problem.
using the preferred mode didn't really helped and I'm currently returned to the 1.7.2-4 version of xserver-xorg-video-i810 from Etch, which is working great as it used to be.
Please let me know how or what actions I can do in order to solve this.
# lspci | grep VGA
00:02.0 VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation 82915G/GV/910GL Integrated Graphics Controller (rev 04)
Cheers,
Gal

You need to upgrade xbase-clients to 7.2 (in testing).

Ok, if you're not able to test/debug/help things anymore for this bug,
we'll probably close it until somebody else meets it.
But I am pretty confident that your problem is just about the preferred
mode of your monitor not being the largest one, and xrandr should allow
to change it after starting X.
