[Bug 221119] Re: [i945] [gutsy, hardy, intrepid] Blank screen and (EE) intel(0): overrun on pipe B! on i945GM using intel driver

[Tim Johnson]

Well, I had everything working fine (except for compiz) until yesterday's updates.  I applied all updates (as I have done with no problem for some months) and my system is now VERY broken.  I'm not even sure what brooke it, but when I get to the login screen, as I type the first letter of my username, my system freezes and only powering down works.  No F10, no ctrl+alt+F1,F2,Backspace, no keyboard, no mouse.  Zip.
I've tried recovery mode xfix, dpkg-reconfigure, using old xorg.conf, vga=792 in Grub.. nothing works.
I have 2 questions:
1.  Did anyone else have this problem?  and 
2.  Can anyone tell me what update yesterday may have caused this?

I'm running Intrepid on a Fujitsu Siemens P4 notebook, 1 G RAM with
builtin Intel 82845 Graphic card and I was the intel driver in xorg.conf
