We aren't doing modesetting on Intel chips yet, so 'nomodeset' won't make a difference.

What intel chip is it? 'lspci' or an Xorg.0.log would help here.

I'm guessing this is a duplicate of bug 461205.

Hum I attached the Xorg.0.log taking a look at the above bug mentioned.

Comment 3 Will Woods 2008-11-07 18:25:35 UTC
Sorry, I missed that - not enough coffee, I guess. 

Anyway, as I guessed, you've got an Intel 855GM, same as the other bug. I'm going to close this as a duplicate - that one's already on the F10 kernel blocker list.
