Ah, same problem here:

System environment:
-- chipset: 945GM
-- system architecture: 32-bit, i686
-- xf86-video-intel: 2.9.1
-- xserver: 1.6.3
-- libdrm: 2.4.15
-- kernel: 2.6.33rc8
-- Linux distribution: Ubuntu 9.04 (Jaunty)
-- Machine or mobo model: Lenovo ThinkPad R60e
-- Display connector: VGA

Reproducing steps:

Laptop is a ThinkPad R60e. External VGA monitors with a native resolution like 1600x1200 or 1920x1080 results in unusable screen flickering if native mode is used. Some smaller resolutions like 1440x900 do work.

I've tested some configurations:
 - Ubuntu 9.04 (Jaunty) with default kernel, default X.org and intel driver
 - Jaunty with default X.org (X Server 1.6.3) and intel driver 2.9.1 (edgers)
 - Jaunty with Kernel 2.6.33rc8 (X Server 1.6.3) and intel driver 2.9.1
