Here nothing works for nearly 2 months, since the beta of xorg 1.6 in
fact. It's impossible to find any couple of kernel/intel drivers/xorg wich
works. There is an ooops generated at xorg start.

it seems to be related to the DRM part, but no luck with 2.6.28 or even
2.6.29 kernel.

I've seen some complaints on the xorg mailing list, but no patch to
address this issue.
