Also, i've been running trusty in a very similar laptop to the one I
used for this report (same CPU/Chipset) but using a slightly different
video card, instead: G86M [GeForce 8600M GS].

And that works.

I've noticed they have a different bios version, though:
 - Not working: v1.3804
 - Working: v1.3804

So, I've upgrade this laptop bios to version v1.3818, and magically
things work now.

Then, while I think we're still somewhat regressing in handling that
old-configured-hw, Acer 5920G users should know that they need to
upgrade their bios to have trusty properly running.
