Comment 45 for bug 311895

Raghu,

I ported the patch to the intrepid version (2.4.1), will attach in a bit.

To make testing easier for everybody, I also uploaded it to my personal package archive, so that you can grab the ready-built .deb from there, or just add the new apt source:

Be warned, though, I didn't test it. In the (unlikely) event that it totally screws up your system, please boot with the "text" kernel command line option in grub, log in at Ctrl+Alt+F1, and do

  sudo apt-get install xserver-xorg-video-intel/intrepid-updates
