[Bug 566379] Re: [i855] X doesn't start with kernel 2.6.32-21 unless passing i915.modeset=1

[Christine Liebig]

@ Peter: Actually, today's update (sorry, don't know which package)
fixed things with Totem Movie Player, but xine was still reporting
segmentation faults, so I installed the mainline kernel and, indeed, it
completely fixed the video problems. Thanks for pointing that out again!

Unfortunately, I still have problems using an external monitor, but that
might be a quite unrelated bug. I can switch the external monitor on,
but not off, and inevitably things crash/freeze when I'm changing
Monitor settings.
