Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: xorg

Bug #541492 Brian Rogers asked for a separate bug if the 2.6.35-20
kernel isn't defaulting to vesa properly.

If I specify i915.modeset=1 boots fine, with KMS.  O.K.  That's how
2.6.35-19 worked O.K.

If I have xorg.conf specifying "vesa" runs fine, no KMS as expected.
O.K.

With i845G I get "no screens found" see attached Xorg.0.log.  No Good.
Conclusion default should wind up with "vesa" but doesn't.
