I thought I was doing that

Section "Device"
   BoardName    "945 GM"
   BusID        "0:2:0"
   Driver       "i810"
   Identifier   "Device[0]"
   Option       "NoDDC"

   Option "monitor-VGA" "MyVgaMonitorSection"
   Option "monitor-TV" "MyTVMonitorSection"
   Option "monitor-LVDS" "MyLVDSMonitorSection"
   Option "monitor-TMDS" "MyTMDSMonitorSection"
   Option "MonitorLayout" "CRT"
EndSection
....
Section "Monitor"
   DisplaySize  340 270
   HorizSync    30-80
   Identifier   "MyTMDSMonitorSection"
   ModelName    "LCD MULTI-MED IA DISPLAY"
   Option       "DPMS"
   VendorName   "DMI"
   VertRefresh  43-80
   UseModes     "Modes[0]"
   Option       "Clone" "off"
EndSection
...
Section "Modes"

EndSection


But I only get

(II) intel(0): Printing probed modes for output TMDS-1
