I tried your xorg.conf (adjusting for my actual screen) and still no luck. In addition, after the latest updates, the problem seems worse. Now, I can't even log in when disabling hardware acceleration. Starting gdm just gives me a blank screen. It doesn't seem to crash any more though so I can switch to the console and stop it manually. The log shows many errors like this:

(EE) intel(0): underrun on pipe A!

Perhaps Mandriva is using a different version of xorg or they have patched it to work around this issue.
