Bug Description
Binary package hint: xorg
Bug #541492 Brian Rogers asked for a separate bug if the 2.6.35-20 kernel isn't defaulting to vesa properly.
If I specify i915.modeset=1 boots fine, with KMS. O.K. That's how 2.6.35-19 worked O.K.
If I have xorg.conf specifying "vesa" runs fine, no KMS as expected. O.K.
With i845G I get "no screens found" see attached Xorg.0.log. No Good.
Conclusion default should wind up with "vesa" but doesn't.

As the OP I have ran into the same issue with the upgrade to kernel 2.6.35-20.
I have added, for now, i915.modeset=1 to the boot options in /etc/default/grub which gives me no crashes or black screens on boot up.
I will attach the Xorg.0.log from when I encountered the issue.
