Have you implemented KMS for intel as described here? |

The driver should pick up the necessary refresh rates from EDID and |
| 31 |
you should not need to set anything up manually. |
| 32 |
|
| 33 |
Xorg configuration is only necessary when you want to configure input |
| 34 |
devices if the default evdev settings are for some reason not suitable |
| 35 |
for you. |
| 36 |
|
| 37 |
I don't have an intel card to compare settings, but hopefully someone |
| 38 |
ought to come up soon. |
