One question:
Is it equivalent to specify a Virtual Size of 2048 2048 in xorg.conf to use the patched xserver-xorg-video-intel?
I have a Dell Inspiron 1525 with GM965 X3100 Intel card and Kubuntu Jaunty amd64.
I also have the latest repository available mesa* and libgl* packages.
Previously, my desktop freezes after 20, before using Alt SysRq K K to recover a svgalib console.
By using the following xorg.conf configuration, the freeze is apparently fixed :

Section "Screen"
  Identifier "Default Screen"
  Monitor "Configured Monitor"
  Device "Configured Video Device"
  SubSection "Display"
   Virtual 2048 2048
  EndSubSection
EndSection

I also use the EXA and Greedy options.

Thanks;
