--- Comment #7 from Chris Wilson <chris at chris-wilson.co.uk> 2012-07-22 09:48:11 UTC ---
(==) intel(0): Will alloc AGP framebuffer: 8192 kByte
(==) intel(0): Using gamma correction (1.0, 1.0, 1.0)
(II) intel(0): Monitor0: Using default hsync range of 31.50-37.90 kHz
(II) intel(0): Monitor0: Using default vrefresh range of 50.00-70.00 Hz

8 MiB: 1920x1080x4 just fits in (a few hundred bytes to spare).  However,
1920x1200 does not. So you will need to increase Option "VideoRam" "16384".

The second problem is that your monitor does not offer a 1920x1200 mode, so you
will need to add that modeline to your xorg.conf. (Or check to see if a more
recent xserver adds it back for). And if it did, it will be out of range of the
default monitor settings so you will need to specify those above as well.

All in all, I think the issue is that the sanity checks became slightly more
paranoid and for the default fb allocation to be reduced. I don't think this is
an outright bug per se, and the only fix would be to move i810 to KMS/GEM so
that we can actually allocate and manage memory dynamically.
