At startup my CRT TV connected via component no longer picks up the margins specified in my xorg.conf file which used to work before KMS. Adding the nomodeset kernel boot parameter to revert to UMS mode resolves the issue. System Environment AOpen MiniPC MP965-DR (GM965 based) Ubuntu 9.10 (Karmic) Kernel 2.6.31 xserver 1.6.4 Intel driver 2.9.0
Created attachment 31722 [details] xorg log file
Created attachment 31723 [details] xorg conf file
Note, setting the output mode using xrandr works with KMS. This bug report is asking for the xorg.conf support for setting these values to be fixed.
Keith, Are we planning to re-enable support for configuring options like this from with xorg.conf file with KMS? -Carl

I know I can use xrandr once the xserver has started, but I am looking for a way to set the defaults. I assume xorg.conf is still the mechanism to do this.
this used to work before KMS, so I wouldn't call it an enhancement.
