[Bug 566103] Re: blank screen and complete lockup when X starts on Intel 855GM Chipset

 

The hack of putting i915.modeset=1 to the kernel boot line is not necessary using driver version 2.11 from http://ppa.launchpad.net/glasen/intel-driver/ubuntu repository. This upgrade also solved the visual effects problem. 
This is extracted from my lspci output:

VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation 82852/855GM Integrated Graphics Device (rev 02)
00:02.1 Display controller: Intel Corporation 82852/855GM Integrated Graphics Device (rev 02)
