I am not 100% certain this is the same bug, however, I have a Compaq Presario C550/C552US running Gutsy w/2.6.22-14. It uses an i945GM and has the exact same problem (as described in the first post - box hard locks right after gdm starts and the "busy" cursor displays for a moment before locking up). My only workaround so far has been to use 2.6.20-15 from Feisty, and use the i810 server instead of the intel server. Interestingly, in 2.6.22-14, if I boot into recovery/single mode and start the X server by hand (startx) _as root_ instead of my user via gdm, all is fine (though it seems to have an adverse effect on the wifi for some reason). The IgnoreEDID flag had no effect for me (I suppose I expected to see some feedback from X that this flag was set but I did not).
