Its with your "Let PLLs settle longer" patch to the 2.2.0 version of
i830_driver.c at https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=13196.  If
that patch does not correspond to the git version, I would be happy to use
git directly to get i830_driver.c (but in that case I would need an exact
recipe from you to obtain the git version since I am not that familiar with
git).
