There are potential fixes for this in the upstream development version. I uploaded it for Lucid to the following PPA:
https://launchpad.net/~brian-rogers/+archive/experimental

I can't simply upload this version for Karmic because it requires new
versions of support libraries, but I can backport the important fixes.
If someone can verify this version fixes the bug in Lucid, I'll backport
the changes and we can get them in Karmic.

Also, right now this PPA contains a Karmic package that bypasses a
graphical operation that was crashing i845 chips. The side effect is
extremely glitchy graphics, though. It would be useful to know if the
i855 problem is caused by the same operation. So testing on Karmic is
also useful. If the Karmic package prevents the problem, then the
problem is with i830_uxa_solid.
