mmm, now I'm running xserver-video-intel-2.4 from siretart ppa, and it is working fine with 2.6.31 kernel (no more 99% cpu usage).

And in my dmesg I can still see:

[ 6.252347] [drm:drm_helper_initial_config] *ERROR* connectors have no modes, using standard modes

So this error was managed correctly by previous video-intel versions.

Thank you!
