Uh, why are you using i810? What Ubuntu version are you running? For an in-depth discussion of why not to use i810: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/i810

Any help - even avoiding the > 915resolution hack - would be greatly appreciated.

This means your fancy monitor with a strange resolution will work out of the box." So, maybe consider using the intel driver instead.
