There's no picture what so ever if I try to use the 'intel' driver. I configured X with 'Screens and Graphics' tool and then hit ctrl-alt-backspace. Not even login screen were shown after that (just blank screen).

Then I copied a working configuration back and tried to just replace 'i810' with 'intel'. That didn't work either. The 'intel' driver doesn't seem to support dual screen either (based on the configuration S&G tool generated).

I also used 'Screens and Graphics' tool to configure X to use the 'i810' driver. I noticed that I could get rid of some old s*t (DDC seems to be fixed in Gutsy), but the configuration still needed some tweaking. S&G tool gave me a wrong configuration for 'MonitorLayout' and DVI-output didn't work.

The attached zip contains 5 files:
xorg.conf - a working configuration I'm now using (some cleanup)
Xorg.0.log-S_and_G-intel.txt - X configured with S&G tool
Xorg.0.log-virepalace-intel.txt - X manually configured (it's *intel* driver)
S_and_G-intel.txt - a non working configuration (diff) made by S&G tool
S_and_G-i810.txt - a non working configuration (diff) made by S&G tool
