Hrmph, no word from upstream, no word from the original reporter.

Of the other commenters, some say the issue is fixed. Others (mostly 845G and 865G users) say it's still there but goes away once DRI is disabled.

It is easy enough to force DRI off for all 845G and 865G chips. I've put a patch to do this into my ppa. I would ask that 845 and 865 users please test it and verify it fixes the issue, without requiring setting anything in your xorg.conf. If it does, I can upload it.

If anyone does not think we should do this change, now's the time to speak up, but provide an explanation why.
