I do love the screen shots when disgnosing, Digr, thanks.

"Intel graphics driver: Unable to use the native resolution, such as 1920x1080, 1680x1050 and 1440x900"

I bet that's it right there. We'll need to figure out which Intel graphics accelerator you have. But first try rebooting your system with the monitor already turned on. There may be no reason to turn the monitor off at all, as newer monitors use a tiny trickle of power when not displaying stuff.
