Dell Inspiron 4150 here.

Intrepid almost would not run because of the video problem.  IT would
try to start the graphics system and then return to the mini-terminal
screen that shows during boot.  After a number of times a warning screen
would pop up telling me that it had tried to restart the video system so
many times (8 I believe).

This was a new install so I dropped back to Hardy and installed it about
a month ago from the live CD.  It occasionally has to try more than once
to start the video during boot.  When it fails it splatters the screen
with garbage.

The system will not come out of any screen blanking action.  Closing the
lid, suspend, screen saver, etc.  I can make it come back by going to
another terminal, ctrl-alt-F6, say, and then back to the GUI.  This
always works.

A possibly related problem is that this machine locks up about every
other day.  Everything is dead - mouse, keyboard, screen, other
terminals.  Even the modem stops if it is doing something.  Hard power
cycle lockup.

I almost always have Forte Agent running in Wine so there may be a
connection.
