Hi
I can confirm Mikael's experience. I can deterministically make X crash simply by watching some specific video with current driver (2:2.2.1-1ubuntu13). See similar X Backtrace attached. Yet, "Upgrading" (and forcing) to Debian's xserver-xorg-video-intel_2.3.0-1_i386.deb package fixed the crash problem. But then, the large videos display very slowly. I didn't try to apply Mikael's suggested patch, though, since i used a precompiled binary.
