Binary package hint: ubuntu-docs

I have Ubuntu 10.10 installed on a foxconn motherboard with intel built-in graphics; I have an IIyama Prolite 2250MTS touchscreen attached, and the touch function work flawlessly (kudos for that!). I only have a problem with the monitor resolution: I can't get the native resolution of 1920x1080 to work. I think it's a problem with the intel driver: 
- when I startup gdm, X crashes with an error message in /var/log/Xorg.0.log: 
[248211.694] (EE) open /dev/fb0: No such file or directory
[248211.702] (EE) intel(0): No kernel modesetting driver detected.
[248211.702] (II) UnloadModule: "intel"
[248211.702] (EE) Screen(s) found, but none have a usable configuration.
[248211.702] 
Fatal server error:
[248211.702] no screens found
The only way to start up is to make a basic xorg.conf with the lines:
Section "Device"
        Identifier      "Configured Video Device"
        Driver          "vesa" # Change this to the driver you want
EndSection

Section "Monitor"
        Identifier      "Configured Monitor"
EndSection

Section "Screen"
        Identifier      "Default Screen"
        Monitor         "Configured Monitor"
        Device          "Configured Video Device"
EndSection

This was X starts up, with resolutions up to 1600x1200, but not with the
native resolution of 1920x1080.
