[Bug 462939] Re: [i855GM] Lid close with intel 82852/855GM provokes black screen, loss of control and overheat

[kludge]

reconstructing xorg.conf from memory (on another machine not booted and
i gotta run out the house):

Section "Device"

Identifier "Builtin Default intel device 0"
# I stole the identifier from Xorg.0.conf run with no xorg.conf
Driver "intel"
Option "ForceEnablePipeA" "True"

EndSection

...and that's it; everything else is autodetected.  for thoroughness
sake, i ought to test without it, but i haven't yet.

also, it's a driver bug.  drivers are part of the kernel, but also their
own separate projects.
