Binary package hint: xserver-xorg-video-intel

As the summary says, Ubuntu falls back to using VESA at boot. However,
this only happens with drivers newer than  xserver-xorg-video-intel
2:2.9.1-1ubuntu3, and even in those if I don't use nomodeset. With
drivers later than the one mentioned above, if I do not use nomodeset, I
simply get a totally dead, black screen.
