just to clarify, i am using a fresh install of intrepid onto a blank
hard drive.  in the current setup, i've made no alterations to the xorg
conf file or any other setting whatsoever.

since my system is not a laptop but a small desktop, i have some
troubleshooting options.  for example, if i disconnect the lcd monitor
from the dvi port and instead connect an analog vga monitor it does
work.  i think this relates to some comment i've read about the bug
being a failure to detect that the digital monitor is present and
forcing analog out only.

the way i maintain and update this system is to use remote desktop to
login to it from another machine but that is only to apply updates in
hope that one day it gets fixed.  overall, having a computer without a
working display is a deal breaker for me on intrepid.
