Thanks Pedro. That works for me.

On a side note, what about a small kludge for karmic:

the intel-driver package could install a 09_i810_karmic_fix file in
/etc/grub.d reading like:

if [ ! -z "$(lspci | grep 'VGA compatible' | grep '82852/855GM')" ]; 
  then GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX="${GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX} nomodeset"; 
fi

That would make users happy, would be easy to remove upon transition to
lucid or when this bug gets fixed, and would require no further
modifications to the release notes. Plus, it would not require user
manual intervention (I would have problems to have my girlfriend or dad
firing up a console and searching for the grub settings...).

Anyway, if it's too ugly, just disregard this post.
