I have the very same problem with another intel chipset, so I don't think I should start another bug on launchpad.

Compiz is working but with a poor performance. glxgears is about 750fps and it leaves a ghost image as I move its window.
Hedgewar graphics (2D!) are completely broken, Tremolous makes the system hang after the welcome screen.
Google Earth draws random colour textures and then the system hangs.

I'm very disapponted with intel... I hope there will be soon a fix for this.
Tell me if you need more info.
