The i810 driver is limited to the modes available in your video bios,
and your video bios sucks.

It's a list of modes that your monitor supports that weren't in the
predefined list back in 1996 or whenever the first EDID spec was

No, you need the intel driver. And you have it! Change the word "i810"
to "intel" in xorg.conf and restart X, it should do something sensible.
