Brian, thanks, I gave it a try, but this is lucid not karmic.  I didn't know 
what to do with that, so I tried it anyway.  The xserver-xorg-video-intel got 
"kept back" so it booted to black screen.  Back to hand keying in xorg.conf 
with driver "vesa".

Thanks for looking at the bug, Jerry

Subject: [Bug 406460] Re: [i845] xorg hang on video driver 2.8.0


I set up a PPA for Karmic that will roll libdrm and xserver-xorg-video-intel 
back to the Jaunty versions:
https://launchpad.net/~brian-rogers/+archive/graphics-testing

I haven't tested this yet, so be prepared to undo it from the command
line if it breaks X.

If this old userspace stuff works fine in the new kernel, it may not be
the kernel's fault at all. In that case, I'll step my PPA forward one
version at a time and we can find out when the problem first appeared.
