I was thinking of the bug fixed by:
commit 7b9c5abee98c54f85bcc04bd4d7ec8d5094c73f4

drm/i915: give up on 8xx lid status
These old machines more often than not lie about their lid state. So
don't use it to detect LVDS presence, but leave the event handler to
deal with lid open/close, when we might need to reset the mode.
Fixes kernel bug #15248

but that's apparently a different issue (that seems to only affect
initial detection). Can you try setting up netconsole to get some more
info? The remaining 855GM issue I know of is
https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=27187
Also, again, please use reportbug to file bugs…
