I realise it's critical to you, but if it doesn't affect other users then I'm afraid it's just not that high a priority. Most i865 systems have been thrown out by now, and to be brutally honest I personally a more concerned about supporting today's hardware properly. You should also test with the older kernel to confirm that this is a software and not hardware failure. You can get older package versions from <http://snapshot.debian.org/package/linux/>. I would guess that you were previously using version 3.2.23-1 (please don't mix up the package version with the ABI version in the package name). If that older version still works then please also test the intermediate package versions 3.2.29-1 and 3.2.30-1. This should give us a smaller range of changes to consider. If you have time then you could also test the package linked from <http://bugs.debian.org/687442#131>. I don't expect this to make a difference but they might.
