I am in the same boat. I could be mistaken, but I thought this was part of kernel mode setting. If I understand correctly, to enable modelines not supported by the bios (hence, formerly, 915resolution), the kernel modesetting must work, and that is not sheduled to be until kernel-2.6.29 for Intel graphics.

Someone please correct me, as I am also getting tired of waiting and waiting and...
