2.6.35-20 blacklists KMS on the problematic cards. X is then supposed to
fall back to vesa. If it doesn't, a bug should be filed for that. If
falling back to vesa has enough problems of its own, that decision might
be reversed.

i915.modeset=1 will override the blacklist, so you can always turn KMS
back on with the new kernel. Also, my own graphics-fixes kernel undoes
the blacklist.
