(Get the code!)
It'd probably be worth checking to see if the installer can do something for Intel 845G's IF Jaunty goes out with the 2.5.x version of the driver. However, with the 2.6.x driver it seems to work great. I've had one blank screen, but that was when I switched to UXA and just logged out. After a reboot, using UXA has been error free in an entire 15 minutes of use.
I also got desktop effects to work. The intel 845G is blacklisted in /usr/bin/compiz. I remarked out the line for the 845's blacklisting. The blacklist is there because of bug 259385.
If any other information is needed, I'll provide it.
FYI:
I added the sources for the xorg-edgers that provides packages based closely on the current GIT repository. I upgraded the packages, deleted my xorg.conf file (well moved it) and rebooted. X configured everything perfectly. I don't recommend this for folks that can't have a bricked box. However, it did work for me.
