Public bug reported: Binary package hint: xserver-xorg-driver-i810
After upgrading from Feisty to Gutsy. The X server stopped working. The machine gets as far as displaying an empty console terminal which you can't escape. Rebooting in recovery mode and looking at the /var/log/Xorg.0.log shows that the system may hang due to broken BIOS implementations if DisplayInfo in the device section is set to true. Adding a line in xorg.conf setting this to false solves the problem.
