This xrandr was done with no HDMI cable plugged in, right?  If so, this 
is to be expected.  If this xrandr command was executed with an HDMI 
cable plugged in to the laptop and an HDMI device, something is wonky 
and you need to start looking in /var/log/Xorg.0.log and possibly the 
output of dmesg for anything that looks weird.  "man intel" doesn't say 
anything about potential things to try in xorg.conf.  (Intel video cards 
are supposed to just work....)
