Sorry, Julien. I will try explain better.

This bug can be a problem between the frame buffer driver and the X
driver (if this is possible).

The problem related in this bug is similar at my computer. Since the
version 2:2.8.1-1 of xserver-xorg-video-intel that my X freeze and,
systematicly, i returned to version 2:2.3.2-2+lenny6, downgrading this
package and all depends. I got the same situation with the version
2:2.8.1-2.

Today, i remember of framebuffer driver. In my grub, i have configured
with options "vga=792 splash", that force the console to 1024x768 (in
text mode). So, is possible some conflict between the vesafb (the driver
loaded) and the X intel driver.

Looking this situation, i tried a change in my menu.lst, changing the
"vga=792 splash" to "video=intelfb". Result that i haven't the
"graphical" console (stay in 80x40 text mode) and without the splash,
but i got the kdm perfectly!

So, my suggest was to try the last driver of X (pkg
xserver-xorg-video-intel 2:2.8.1-2) with this change in him(your?)
initialization.

For me, it is ok.

Best regards
Claudio
