I use p4-clockmod module (/etc/modules) and cpudyn to manage the speed.
I don't know if it's usefull but I installed intel-microcode and 
microcode.ctl

I don't, but I succeed using a 17" monitor at 1600x1024, maybe it could 
help you...

See attached
As you can see, I only configured what I needed: virtual 2048 2048, what 
allows xrandr to put the monitors you want in a 2048x2048 virtual screen
Xorg now tries to detect all peripherals to start the server

 xrandr --output VGA --mode 1600x1024 --below LVDS

works fine

For xrandr, the resolution sum of your LVDS and your external screen 
must fit in a 2048x2048 virtual screen, which is the maximum possible 
with our graphic shipset, I think. So you must place your external 
screen above, below or the same (see xrandr --help).
