Mathew, I think your issue may be unrelated (maybe bug 127101). Can you test against Gutsy-final, in which we fixed 127101?

It sounds like TJ's problem is that his monitor was not detected/configured properly, and dexconf used these default settings:

Section "Monitor"
 Identifier "Generic Monitor"
 Option "DPMS"
 HorizSync 30-70
 VertRefresh 50-160
EndSection

Section "Screen"
 Identifier "Default Screen"
 Device "Intel Corporation 82815 CGC [Chipset Graphics Controller]"
 Monitor "Generic Monitor"
 DefaultDepth 24
EndSection

Whereas when reconfigured, it discovered it as this:
Section "Monitor"
 Identifier "LCD Panel 1024x768"
 Option "DPMS"
 HorizSync 28-64
 VertRefresh 43-60
EndSection

Section "Screen"
 Identifier "Default Screen"
 Device "Intel Corporation 82815 CGC [Chipset Graphics Controller]"
 Monitor "LCD Panel 1024x768"
 DefaultDepth 24
 SubSection "Display"
  Modes "1024x768"
 EndSubSection
EndSection

TJ, can you please attach the output of `sudo ddcprobe` and `lspci -vvnn`? Then we can verify that the EDID info is getting communicated correctly, and ensure the pci ids are listed in discover.
