Actually I think it's much more likely that there's a small configurations
problem. Please grab the latest fedora or ubuntu livecd and see whether it
properly works. If that does, make sure you don't have any old xorg.conf
lying around, latest releases of xf86-vidoe-intel, libdrm, mesa and kernel
installed and that kernel modesetting is properly enabled (check module
parameters in /sys/module/i915).

Yours, Daniel
