Binary package hint: xserver-xorg-video-intel

In my laptop, X randomly freezes when playing video using Video Overlay. When the video starts, the screen always flickers and sometimes it changes to a random colour and freezes. There are reports from other users in the comments of bug 278318. Using TexturedVideo there are no freezes but the video tears.
I'm now using UXA but the problem also appears with EXA. In Hardy, I hadn't any freezes using Overlay.

Thank you and sorry for my bad English.
