 Anyone using the intel driver?

 No one?

My i845G is having a rough time with it:

constitute no part of the policy or duty of the state in
any assignable shape.

Hi, replaced the i810 driver with intel looking for better results
on getting the s-video output to work but the server is using a wrong
DisplaySize leaving me with a weird desktop.
Pic: http://img249.imageshack.us/img249/7962/intelln4.png
  
I changed the config like this:
  
Section Monitor
#  DisplaySize  331 207 -- Old value
  DisplaySize  344 222 -- New value
  HorizSync30-62
  Identifier   Monitor[0]
  ModelNameFD1631154WB4 LCD MONITOR
  Option   DPMS
  VendorName   CPT
  VertRefresh  43-60
  UseModes Modes[0]
EndSection
  
But the x server seems to use the old value (already restarted it many
times), from the logs:
  
(II) intel(0): Supported additional Video Mode:
(II) intel(0): clock: 68.9 MHz   Image Size:  331 x 207 mm -- still
getting the old values
(II) intel(0): h_active: 1280  h_sync: 1301  h_sync_end 1333
h_blank_end 1408 h_border: 0
(II) intel(0): v_active: 800  v_sync: 801  v_sync_end 804 v_blanking:
816 v_border: 0
  
This is a Dell Inspiron 6400, X/SaX detects the card as 945 GM and
the laptop specs state (Intel Graphics Media Accelerator 950), any
ideas?
  
   I can't tell what your screenshot is supposed to be showing, but here are
 
  It's the actual view from the laptop's LCD panel, i'm not tinkering
  yet with s-video. If you have a look at the kde panel, it's not aware
  of the actual panel size and the konqueror box is fully maximazed it
  should be covering the whole screen
 
   three changes to xorg.conf that I would try if it was my problem:
 
  I assume that's for testing with s-video, right?, i'll test it in case
  it's needed
 
  
   VertRefresh  56-61 # try this first
   #   UseModes Modes[0] try 2nd
   Option NoDDC # in Section Device for the graphics card (last resort)
  
   I doubt DDC can work via an S-Video connection.
