The driver I was referring to earlier is found in the kernel's menuconfig:
Intel 440LX/BX/GX, I8xx and E7x05 chipset support, compiled via
Device Drivers -> Character devices -> Intel ...
A review of the LFS Xorg.lib tells me that this was found.
The xorg.conf file looks like its OK.
Section "Device"
Identifier "Generic Video Card"
Driver "i810"
BusID "PCI:0:2:0"
EndSection
But you need to remove the i810 entry in 'Section "Module"'. I don't know if
that is an issue or not.
If you run 'Xorg -configure' (as root) and then test with
X -config ~/xorg.conf.new what do you get?

Doubtful. You would need to run the acpid daemon to get this to work.

Yes. It is i810 in your Ubuntu configuration so it is the same in LFS.

Did you try Ctrl-Alt-F1? You may be at screen 7 when X exits instead of screen
1.
