I'd have to see your full logfile to be sure but it looks to me like it
is not autodetecting your monitor due to DDC not working with the
laptop screen. Have you tried setting horizontal and vertical sync?
E.g.
I think this would specifically give you 640x480, 800x600, 1024x768 and
1440x900:
Section "Monitor"
Identifier "Configured Monitor"
HorizSync 28.8,36,46.1,54
VertRefresh 60
EndSection
Although the 'extra' time for some timing single might make that fail
or, which should work for anything between 640x480 and 1440x900
Section "Monitor"
Identifier "Configured Monitor"
HorizSync 28.8-56.84
VertRefresh 60
EndSection
Be ready to kill X quickly if those timings are wrong (unless you
monitor is just smart and refuses to use rates that it can't handle).
DISCLAIMER: I don't have a laptop; I don't know if these setting can
cause permanent damage. You have been warned.
Regards,
Daniel
