Solaris 11.1

I have Gateway FPD1975W native 1440x900.

It works flawlessly on an HP dc7800 using onboard gma 3100
on Ubuntu 10.04 with X.Org X Server 1.7.6. Xorg.0.log shows:

  [444166.147] (II) intel(0): Modeline "1440x900"x0.0  106.50  1440 1520
  1672 1904  900 903 909 934 -hsync +vsync (55.9 kHz eP)

But it fails on the exact same hardware on Solaris 11.1 with
X.Org X Server 1.12.2. The monitor says "Frequency out of range"
and the screen is otherwise blank. Xorg.0.log shows:

(II) intel(0): Modeline "1440x900"x0.0  106.50  1440 1520
  1672 1904  900 903 909 934 -hsync +vsync (55.9 kHz)

I have also tried four monitors (2 Gateway, 2 Viewsonic) on
Solaris 11 on this hw; all fail with freq out of range;
all work fine on other systems.

I tried crafting an xorg.conf file that specifies only this modeline;
same result, blank screen, freq out of range. Most I've succeeded in
doing: if I dink down the hfreq/vfreq numbers I eventually get a
messed-up display at 1280x1024 with half the screen image missing.

Is there a known bug I may be hitting? Or something I should be trying?

Thanks!
