No. I have a eepc900 here with a 915 in it and (aside from the font
corruption bug) it's working just fine.
Added myself there to see if I can help any.
The newer kernels and newer intel driver seem be work better without
modesetting.
Try nomodeset on the boot line.
Worth a try, but all my intel machines are working fine with
modesetting...
