intel 945gm graphics controller.. only vesa works .5 times


anyone run into an issue installing FC4 on Dells D820 with Intel 945GM graphics controller?

upon boot of laptop i get a error - x server wont' start unless I run x configuration programe - I run the x configuration programe and change the monitor to whatever it seems to not make a difference. I leave the video card on VESA (generic) and Gnome (x-window) will start and work fine.. but then I reboot and the same problem happens again. I have been on google since 8am and can't find a fix to work for me. any ideas? see below for my xorg.0.log erros - if you made this work by tweaking your xorg.conf please post it. Many thanks!

X Window System Version 6.8.2
2.6.11-1.1369_FC4smp

(WW) Open APM failed (/dev/apm_bios) (No such file or directory)
(WW) VESA(0): Bad V_BIO
S checksum
(WW) VESA(0): config file hsync range 31.5-37.9kHz not within DDC hsync ranges.
(WW) VESA(0): config file vrefresh range 50-70Hz not within DDC vrefresh ranges.
(WW) VESA(0): Bad V_BIOS checksum
