fred,

i have no idea if 915resolution is compatible with kernel modesetting.
perhaps  915resolution is not meant to work anymore with kernel 2.6.32.
it used to work fine with kernel 2.6.30 (from lenny backports).

this is the original thread about the subject

and here are the instructions on how to make 915resolution to work on
lenny
