Oops, I'm dumb. The reason my XF86Config-4 was changed was because of debconf, and the reason that my display was working with the modelines was that I had not yet restarted X! I thought that debconf changed things long time ago, but I guess I've been logged in for longer than that... Oh well.

Byte swapping audio in the kernel? From what I've heard, this is a no-no. I'm pretty sure Linus and Alan Cox both agree that this is purely a userspace task, and any attempt to move this into the kernel will be met with great resistence. You may have better luck making sure that the driver correct
