x flickers on eeepc when plugging power supply, and with some apps

[Dave-B]

EeePC fully up to date with Jaunty as of 4pm GMT.

When connecting and disconnecting the mains power adapter, and when loading Totem (and probably other apps), the screen flickers, with rectangles of windows being flashed up on the wrong part of the screen. This can be just about seen in this video, after the clunk noises of me un/plugging the power: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qWZGJpAUpM0

xvidcap couldn't capture the flicker.

I'm guessing this is GEM related, so package = xserver-xorg-video-intel.

No flicker noticeable on an external monitor.

Flicker also happens when screen dims on idle, and when brightens on activity.

X log mentions problems with tiling.

Also, nominating for Intrepid was an accident, but I can't see how to remove it.

Updated to module version 2.6.3, and the problem seems to be gone.
