The answer is in xorg.conf:

...
>  Driver       "intel"

That's the driver used, the expected result of the instructions at the above 
URL you've apparently yet to finish. You have to try the i810 driver first 
before we can progress. None of what I wrote
following that direction is relevant until such time as both intel and i810 
fail, if indeed both fail.

i810_smbus is probably a sub-driver within the intel driver. There is only one 
"intel driver", while there are a lot of intel chipsets that single "driver" is 
designed to drive.

The best thing with stuff like this is to upload it to your personal web space 
and include the URL thereto in your reply. If you have no personal web space 
http://pastebin.com/ or something similar
will do. Either way, we're not ready for it yet. Try i810 driver and BIOS 
upgrade first.

Consider 10.2 and 11.0alpha or Factory as ultimate alternatives. Getting Intel 
video configured in 10.3 can be a serious pain.
