<pre>Gentlemen, that seems to have worked.
I applied the patch to
<a href="http://cgit.freedesktop.org/~danvet/drm-intel/snapshot/drm-intel-next-2013-03-23.tar.gz">http://cgit.freedesktop.org/~danvet/drm-intel/snapshot/drm-intel-next-2013-03-23.tar.gz</a>,
and built and installed the kernel.
The system came up with the console in 1024x768. When I launched X, it was
still in 1024x768; however I was able to xrandr newmode and addmode to 1024x576
(i.e. native), and then set the native mode. So I guess I should be able to
force this in xorg.conf.
Thanks a lot guys, I'm very impressed by your responsiveness!</pre>
