anyone know of a resolution for the intel i915 "black screen" issue?

[Robert P. J. Day]

  i haven't been following closely enough -- has there been a solution
checked in for the (common) problem of recent git trees producing a
totally black screen shortly after boot with onboard intel i915
graphics?

  i'd really like to start building kernels again for my ubuntu system
but everything lately still gives me a black screen.
