Bryce,
Thank you for redirecting me to the right place.  I am not a linux guru 
and need all the help I can get when in trouble.  I always seem to find 
it in the linux community, though.
Just to put this to bed, I have included my manually assembled xorg.conf 
file to fix my issue with the Intel board and driver.
