It is an Intel one. Specifically:

00:02.0 VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation Mobile 945GME Express 
Integrated Graphics Controller (rev 03) (prog-if 00 [VGA controller])
        Subsystem: ASUSTeK Computer Inc. Device 8340
        Flags: bus master, fast devsel, latency 0, IRQ 16

Here's the video driver:

ii  xserver-xorg-video-intel               2:2.9.1-3                  X.Org X 
server -- Intel i8xx, i9xx display d

I'm pretty sure this is indeed the same issue. However setting 'options 
i915 modeset=0' in /etc/modprobe.d/i915-kms.conf did not fix this issue 
as it should have. Maybe that's because KMS is now mandatory with the 
current Intel drivers?
