Colin,

I feel we need to do better testing with intel hardware like yours. But the best details I can gather about your system are:

[ 36.136] (==) intel(0): Depth 15, (--) framebuffer bpp 16
[ 36.136] (==) intel(0): RGB weight 555
[ 36.136] (==) intel(0): Default visual is TrueColor
[ 36.136] (--) intel(0): Integrated Graphics Chipset: Intel(R) 865G
[ 36.139] (--) intel(0): CPU: x86, sse2
[ 36.139] (**) intel(0): Framebuffer tiled
...
[ 36.140] (II) intel(0): SNA initialized with Almador (gen2) backend
...
[ 36.140] (II) intel(0): [DRI2] Setup complete
[ 36.140] (II) intel(0): [DRI2] DRI driver: i915
[ 36.140] (II) intel(0): direct rendering: DRI2 Enabled

Do you have any more information about what kind of GPU/CPU you have? Can you "lspci" and "cat /proc/cpuinfo"?

Also, please make sure you _don't_ have a /etc/X11/xorg.conf so that X can properly detect your setup.
