Comment 73 for bug 221119

Btw, upstream is likely to want to know if this problem occurs with a newer version of X and -intel. Perhaps the easiest way to check would be to burn and boot a Jaunty alpha Live CD, which has newer versions of both. You can get ISOs at http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/releases/jaunty/

Upstream may also want to see the output of intel_reg_dumper from both a failed (black) session (ssh into the box to get it), and from a good session (e.g. when using i810). If anyone can obtain output from these two cases, it may help upstream in narrowing down the problem.
