Was it able to run in anything higher than 1024 x 768 when run from a liveUSB/livecd-dvd?
I found when dealing with 910GL thru 945GM I have to make sure the the xserver-xorg-video-intel installed correctly. (Noted that you do in fact have it installed) Using the intel binaries is a 50/50.
Command to install for future reference:
Note: But after reviewing your report - I found that you in fact have both the binaries and video-intel drivers installed.
I am inclined to think that the displays (monitor) not being detected to support that resolution. Some 15 inch, 17 inch, and 19 inch and 20+ inch Samsung displays have the same sync ID (UPP) but do not support the same display resolution. So LL could be seeing the monitor as either a un support device or a device that only supports a lower resolution. ( Have a P2770 on some distro's it comes up as a P2370 but both support 1080p so it not an issue.)
The only time a have had to deal with the binaries is when dealing with my Intel Nuc but after kernel 3.11 that was no longer needed.
