Thanks for your prompt response Steve. With "splash" removed the only difference is the lack of a splash screen and it is replaced with the bootup sequence, the laptop still locks up just after where you would expect the splash screen to be.
With "splash" + "i915.modeset=1" in place it boots perfectly and possibly slightly quicker than the 2.6.32-20 kernel. My only question now is will I have to manually modify grub.cfg each time a kernel or Grub is replaced? Thanks again.
