i tried the 2.6.99.1 driver using the ubuntu 9.04 alpha 4 live cd. i was not able to install the 2.6.99.1 driver under ubuntu 8.10 because of the dependencies.
to be exact, i used following command: dpkg -i xserver-xorg-video-intel_2.6.99.1+git20090207.3aa8591a-0ubuntu0tormod2_i386.deb
the 2.6.1 driver shipped with the alpha 4 live cd was working fine (although still with the 1024x768 problem). the 2.6.99 driver showed the same problem as in my original report, the entire display showed the color of one pixel. perhaps this is because of the integrated LVDS quirk in the 2.6.1 driver?
