i915 crashes on Thinkpad X40 with "i915_probe" error

[Adam Rosi-Kessel]

I'm attempting to use the i915 DRM module new in 2.6.9 on an IBM Thinkpad
X40.  This is a fairly common laptop for Linux users, so I expect others
will experience similar problems.  The module crashes before X even
starts up, so I'm pretty sure it has nothing to do with my X server (I'm
using Debian sid).  Google and LKML searches for i915_probe give 0
results, so I guess this is pretty new.  Here's the error--I don't know
if this kind of backtrace is at all helpful: 

[drm:i915_probe] *ERROR* Cannot initialize the agpgart module.
