Bug#571799: xserver-xorg-video-intel: Macbook 3, 1 (Santa Rosa) display hangs immediately after boot following lenny->squeeze upgrade.

[David Wilson <dw@botanicus.net>]

the problem resolved itself. It appears whatever the problem was, it
was fixed upstream.

Thanks,


David
(I'm unsure how to close a Debian bug)
