Bug Description
The mobile graphics controller on the GMCHB0ICHB0 motherboard does not seem to be detected properly.
First, when rebooting the machine, I get an xorg error message on blue background. So, I have attached the corresponding Xorg.0.log.
Then, when looking at the xorg.conf, I see that the xorg.conf file contains "vesa" as the driver. So, I have attached that file as well.
Second, I changed the driver to "intel" and tried restarting gdm but I still got the same behavior. So, I looked at the Xorg.0.log file and noticed the following error message:
Parse error on line 72 of section Monitor in file /etc/X11/xorg.conf
The HorizSync keyword must be followed by a list of numbers or ranges.
(EE) Problem parsing the config file
(EE) Error parsing the config file
Third, I ran dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg to autodetect the monitor and it finally worked. Could the problem be that the monitor was not configured during the installation process?

GMCHB0ICHB0 isn't a particularly useful identifier for this board. Is it not marked with anything else?
Anyway, from the pci ids, I can see that it's a 965GM.
Please try tomorrow's daily as it will have an updated discover-data.
