AFAICT there are no older versions of the driver in sid anymore.
xserver-xorg-video-i810 is now an empty transitional package.

I haven't found anything authoritative, but there is some info in bug
#390913.

It also seems like Fedora has disabled vbetool in pm-utils on Intel
hardware:

pm-utils-0.19-3
---------------
* Mon Jul 31 2006 Jeremy Katz <katzj redhat com> - 0.19-3
- doing the vbestate save/restore on intel video with the modesetting
  intel xorg driver is broken.  so don't do it.
