I was having the problem that the i810 driver was rebooting my system until I
changed my BIOS setting to use the onboard controller (i810).  Then I had what
you describe as a completely corrupted and unusable display.  I was able to
resolve this with a fresh i810 driver from the latest xorg CVS.  It is attached.
