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).

Cheers,
Jesse
