I attached the patched file, i830_lvds.c, which is in xserver-xorg-video-intel-2.4.1/src/ of the source package. The only thing changed in the file is on line 390 before "if (on) {" I've added "if (!on) return;". Which fixes it this bug, but I have no idea if it will cause a regression on systems that don't have this bug.

Anyways I'm glade to help, so if their is anything else I can do let me know. This is the first package for ubuntu I've built though so I'm still getting myself familiar with how packaging and submitting bug fixes and reports are done. If I'm doing something wrong tell me. Oh and if I don't respond right away it's just because I have a number of exams I have to write between now and the ninth. I hope this helps.
