I see this when booting a freshly installed and "apt-get upgraded" Ubuntu 9.10 Karmic Desktop (kernel 2.6.31-14-generic) on a Dell Inspiron 500m laptop:
[3.869634] render error detected, EIR: 0x00000010 [3.869640] [drm:i915_handle_error] *ERROR* EIR stuck: 0x00000010, masking [3.869664] render error detected, EIR: 0x00000010
Everything seems to work correctly in Ubuntu Desktop, including desktop effects. I don't see the page table error of the original report.
This laptop does have the symptoms of https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/netbook-launcher/+bug/368394 when running Ubuntu Netbook Remix. See apport attachments for the laptop in that bug (sender name: Antti Kaihola).
Here's lspci -vvnn output for the display controller:
