Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: xserver-xorg-video-intel
I've got a Thinkpad X40 with a “Intel Corporation 82852/855GM Integrated
Graphics Device” the driver from xserver-xorg-video-i810 worked for me
all the time. Yesterday I discovered xserver-xorg-video-intel and
installed it. When I rebooted my laptop today. Starting X resulted in
very strange behavior. Most times it just froze with a black screen,
once pressing any key resulted in strange letters being printed on the
screen, sometimes it brought up a login screen, even though I use
autologin, logging in resulted in a frozen black screen.
After changing i810 in /etc/X11/xorg.conf to vesa I was able to log in
again. I uninstalled xserver-xorg-video-intel and reinstalled xserver-
xorg-video-i810 and changed vesa back to i810. Now everything is working
again.
