perfectly on my i850 chipset. I strongly urge the X maintainers to add
this patch to the official Debian package before the next release---it's
a showstopper for people with these Intel chipsets. This particular
patch is non-intrusive; it detects exactly those chipsets that need to
be fixed, and nothing else.
For those who wish to test the fix (or need a fixed package to use with
their Intel chipsets), I've built an (unofficial!) package for i386

Hope this helps.
