I am using an acer C111Tci (Acer C100 series) running Kubuntu 8.04 (Hardy Heron) Alpha 5.
The graphics processor is 855GM, resolution 1024x768, @ 60Hz
I have to fall back on the i810 driver, which works with a previous (fully configured0 xorg.conf, but lacks the auto-configure functionality, and does not deal well with external screens/monitors.
The refresh rate problem with the Intel driver has persisted for me, even with the latest release I have installed - xserver-xorg-2.2.90-2ubuntu7.
The resolution has been set correctly by the driver, but the refresh rate is still wrong - 130Hz! I am still suffereing flickering and an unusable display as a result. (I cannot change the refresh rate with randr.)
I can confirm Comment #34:
