This is Lucid 10.04 installed via A2 Alternate CD and updated frequently
today now at:

Linux version 2.6.32-14-generic (buildd@vernadsky) (gcc version 4.4.3
(Ubuntu 4.4.3-2ubuntu2) ) #20-Ubuntu SMP Sat Feb 20 05:38:50 UTC 2010

1.  With nomodeset and "vesa" it runs O.K. as I'm entering this comment.  
This is the i845 reported on the bug.  The 2.6.32-9 was on Lucid.  
The most updated Karmics I have are on 2.6.31-19.

2. With modeset at default and "vesa" boots to black screen.  ssh to
terminal then did ubuntu-bug xorg which I'll attach.

3.  With nomodeset and default xorg boots to black screen with fixed
cursor hazy round figure.  ssh doesn't work.  Nothing on keyboard works.

4. rsync today's build Lucid 21 Feb 2010 md5sum check good.  
    Boot try: Check disk for defects.
    No response.  Menu just sits there.  No action at all.  tty dead.

5.  Boot try "ubuntu with no change..."
    No response.  Menu just sits there.  tty dead.

6.  Boot try F6 replace "quiet nomodeset" with "single"
   No response.  Menu screen sits there.  tty dead.

7.  Boot try acpi off, no apic, no lapic, no modeset.
    Menu screen just sits there.  tty dead.
   CD light flashes.  Forever.

8.  Boot try nomodeset
    Menu screen just sits there.  tty dead.
    CD light flashes.  Forever.

Any other trial suggestions?

Anyway, with "nomodeset" and "vesa" I'm running from an Alternate A2
install updated frequently.

Thanks for your attention, Jerry
