Comment 19 for bug 365776

Just came across a post from Carl Worth in planet gnome that I believe is related (http://cworth.org/intel/driver_stability/). He explains that the intel driver had gone through a major restructuring wich caused some regressions. This regressions were addressed mainly in the kernel, and the fixes are available only in 2.6.30.

He also mentions that there are people in Ubuntu working on it and there are newer versions of the intel driver and a package for 2.6.30 (https://launchpad.net/~xorg-edgers).
