This sounds like an error in the X display driver initializing the
chipset. AFAIK there's some intel GMCH inside? I've read about problems
somewhere. Can't remember exactly where, but likely on LKML.

I had similar symptoms with various graphiccards and un-/semisupported
displaydrivers since starting with linux. Choosing vesa schould solve
it, but will give you nonacellerated video and for sure is no good
option. At last for isolating the troublemaker.

Don't know about the new libretto. I assume a driver problem.
