Just installed 20100831 on this i845G VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation 82845G/GL[Brookdale-G]/GE Chipset Integrated Graphics Device (rev 01) which has had black screen, hangs, ... on Maverick (and Lucid, Karmic, ...) frequently, depending on what updates have done to it lately.
With: Linux jerry-desktop 2.6.35-19-generic #28-Ubuntu SMP Sun Aug 29 06:36:51 UTC 2010 i686 GNU/Linux and intel version: Version: 2:2.12.0-1ubuntu3 it boots normally using "quiet" and no xorg.conf to gdm with KMS active. I can Ctrl-Alt-Del-F1, log in, do some stuff, and switch back to gdm O.K. Now I don't know if it will hang after a while. A couple of weeks ago it would, but then updates seem to fix that. By the way, my i830 all up to date on Maverick hasn't hung or anything lately either. Early on in Maverick it needed "vesa" and i915.modeset=0. Not today. Let me try the Brian Rogers fix. I added his ppa and the xorg.conf. Now to do update. I assume Maverick has the latest Xorg (how do I tell) so I didn't do that.
