Binary package hint: xserver-xorg-video-intel
When attempting to use the new xserver-xorg-video-intel on a Fujitsu Stylistic 4110P with i830 graphics, I receive screen corruption (blank screen with vertical or horizontal banding which corresponds roughly to currently displayed screen in brightness). The X server does not crash and appears to continue working whilst it fails to display correctly (in other words, it appears to be attempting to display the log-in prompt).
xserver-xorg-video-i810 works correctly but I am trying to change over because it appears impossible to configure it to use more than 8m video memory and to support dual displays.
This might be the same as bug #124946. I downgraded to an older driver version, 2:2.0.0-1feisty1, which I think comes from "deb http:// www.burtonini. com/debian/ feisty/". You might try adding that to your /etc/apt/ sources. list, then downgrading to that version in Synaptic (using "Package -> Force Version" followed by "Apply" followed by "Package -> Lock Version"), and see if it makes your display work.
