That page is utter and complete crap. I've been meaning to remove it but
I've been afraid of getting gentoo-wiki folks angry. (Note that this is
*not* a Gentoo project...)

The best way to configure your Intel chip is to use a barebone xorg.conf
(or even no xorg.conf at all) and let the driver configure itself. It
_should_ all work out of the box.

If not, file a bug in Gentoo's bugzilla and we'll sort it out.

Cheers,

Rémi
