Other users of the G35 chipset reported the same problem on Ubuntu forums :
See http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=647449&page=3

To sum up, with this G35 / X3500 based motherboard :

* HDMI connection to monitors works well
* VGA connection to monitors works well
* DVI connection to monitors works well under console and framebuffer
* DVI connection to monitors works well under Windows
* DVI connection to monitors works well under Xorg with the VESA driver
* DVI connection to monitors does not work under Xorg with the Intel driver

(By the way, if you're testing this hardware: that xorg bug seems also to
affect all G35 users : http://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=11311 ).
