I remember, by 7 or 8 august (before my 9th august post on page 20 this thread) getting also a fuzzy screen and no menu text when used on a 17" CRT monitor. Will get (within a few days as I am out of work now) a try applying the i845G.conf and disable-composite.conf files.
I also installed the following:
mesa-7.10.2-i486-1.txz + needed
xf86-video-intel-2.15.0-i486-1.txz
libdrm-2.4.25-i486-1.txz
glew-1.5.7-i486-1.txz
with Load glx and Load DRI manualy enabled in xorg.conf;
my spupsave file is 256MB sized with freespace= 117MB.
In attachment my current xorg.conf file;
also installed: a wacom Bamboo tablet - see driver here:

CPU temperature is given 64°C while running glxgears after ca. 5 minutes (52°C if not).
Using this configuration since quite a week ... all looks OK.
Cheers, Charlie
