Brian, as posted in bug #420594 lucid has been hanging on i845G on this
IBM ThinkCentre A30 2 gHz Celeron.  Example linux-image 2.6.32-7 and
2.6.32-9 boot to black screen however Ctrl-Alt-F1 gets a command line.

Geir Ove Myhr gave me info on things to try from http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/ and this one is working at the moment:
linux-image-2.6.33-020633rc2-generic_2.6.33-020633rc2_i386.deb

-7 and -9 still fail most of the time.  When it did boot, after a while
the screen would freeze altogether which is more like this bug #406460.
Do note I did do a fresh install with a linux CD at the -7 level; I had
to key in an xorg.conf to get the CD to go.

So 2.6.33rc2 is up and hasn't frozen; I've been running about an hour.

Thanks, Jerry
