Comment 21 for bug 445056

I had to use the --indirect-rendering flag when I was using Compiz in Ubunty 9.04 (Jaunty) because of the memory corruption bug. But again it seams that I was lucky with 9.10 because I haven't experienced any freezes on my system with the default intel drivers that came with it. By the way, I am currently using drivers from xorg-edgers ppa (https://launchpad.net/~xorg-edgers/+archive/ppa), not because I really needed them, but because I got used to using this repository with Jaunty because it solved my intel graphic problems. But if you decide to give it a try, make sure you learn how to return your system in a working condition, when some of the updates break your graphic system (it can happen from time to time). But doing this, you can actively participate in testing the development versions of intel drivers and X.org, which I hope will result with better drivers with the future releases.
