Hmmm ... this is from the /var/log/Xorg.0.log with the intel driver:
(II) intel: Driver for Intel Integrated Graphics Chipsets: i810,
i810-dc100, i810e, i815, i830M, 845G, 852GM/855GM, 865G, 915G,
E7221 (i915), 915GM, 945G, 945GM, 945GME, 965G, 965G, 965Q, 946GZ,
965GM, 965GME/GLE, G33, Q35, Q33
So it looks like it should work on your system. Is your version the
same as listed? (2.0.0-4)
The chip set is very new ...
The driver also announces itself as a new version of the i810 driver.
It is also my understanding that the specs from intel are good on the
new chip set, so it should work.
Perhaps yours is a variant that is not covered, yet.
There is a newer version of the above mentioned rpm in development,
(2.1.1-3) maybe that one will work for you. drm will be broken because of a
version mismatch, but 3D is not ready yet anyways.
You can safely install it with:
# yum --enablerepo=development install xorg-x11-drv-i810
It should come down by itself.
Give that one a shot to see if it supports your variant.
Good Luck!
And this fixes it!! It is a fc8 package, but 1680 x 1050 is fixed by default. Thanks, Phil!! This incredible community support is one of the two reasons (other being open soruce) why I stick to Fedora, even though everyone I know have moved away to ubuntu or its variants....
