Clone mode on i915

Hello All,

I'm using the  Dell Inspiron 2200 laptop with embedded i915 graphics 
controller.

The native resolution for builtin LFP is 1024x768.
I wont to connect external monitor Samsung SyncMaster  740N to the VGA port.
And I wont to work in the clone mode:
LFP: 1024x768
Samsung: 1280x1024

This configuration is working fine under the Windows XP with Intel graphics 
drivers.

Is it possible by using x.org?

I tried to use many examples of xorg.conf files for this mode which I found in 
the Internet by google.

Best result that I have: both monitors (LFP and external Samsung) work in the 
1024x768 mode.


Software configuration:
Linux distribution is OpenSUSE 10.2.
X.org version is xorg-7.2 (Latest suse build).
Linux kernel is 2.6.18.2.

I have attached my xorg.conf file and X server log file.

Can anyone  help me with this?
Any ideas or links?

Big thanks!

Best regards!

Vladimir Davydov.
