To get everything oke it is probably necessary to have x-org 7.3 (RC)
and new drivers for intel from x-org installed as well as xrandr 1.2.
See the extensive discussion provided by Mandriva for their Spring
release which also offers detailed instruction to get everything
installed separately fr
A few months got a nice e-mail from Timo Aaltonen with a link to his ftp
site with an experimental driver which works:

For a detailed discussion of the issues related to Intel and 1680x1050
see the Mandriva site:

The bug also exists for Herd 5 in combination with an Dell Optiples
GX520 (with the intel video chip) attached to an external 22 inch
Belinea LCD monitor. Defaults to 1280X1024. No way to change it.
