I have similar issues on Dell Optiplex GX260. Ubuntu 9.10 is fully
updated. I have updated Bios from version A05 to A09  - this didn't
helped a lot.

lspci -vv shows :

00:02.0 VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation 82845G/GL[Brookdale-G]/GE 
Chipset Integrated Graphics Device (rev 01)
        Subsystem: Dell Device 0126
        Control: I/O+ Mem+ BusMaster+ SpecCycle- MemWINV- VGASnoop- ParErr- 
Stepping- SERR- FastB2B- DisINTx-
        Status: Cap+ 66MHz- UDF- FastB2B+ ParErr- DEVSEL=fast >TAbort- <TAbort- 
<MAbort- >SERR- <PERR- INTx-
        Latency: 0
        Interrupt: pin A routed to IRQ 16
        Region 0: Memory at e8000000 (32-bit, prefetchable) [size=128M]
        Region 1: Memory at ff680000 (32-bit, non-prefetchable) [size=512K]
        Capabilities: <access denied>
        Kernel driver in use: i915
        Kernel modules: i915

I have added in /etc/X11/xorg.conf in section "Device" (don't know if
this has any effect) :

Option "AccelMethod" "uxa"

I have commented out in etc/X11/xorg.conf in section "Module"  :
#       Load            "glx"
#       Load            "GLcore"
#       Load            "dri"
#       Load            "v4l"

Currently it is working fine. I will report again if there will be any
new lockups.  I have attached my xorg.conf.
