Hi, I came around testing the xserver-xorg-video-intel 2.12 and 2.13 versions with the unstable kernel as requested. Both versions of the package start the X-server (that is already an improvement over the current linux-image-2.6.32-5-686/xserver-xorg-video-intel combination in testing) and the issues initially reported in the bug are gone, i.e. shutdown, reboot, hibernate, logout all seem to work. The video acceleration seems to work, too. I have however had some issues with the xserver-xorg-video-intel 2.12 that don't occur with the 2.13 version. Using any application that tries to switch the screen resolution (like running dosbox or wine with a game with non-native resolution in fullscreen mode) kills X which is then promptly restarted and asks for a user log-in. The easiest way to reproduce this bug is to start dosbox and press Alt+Return for fullscreen mode which seems to trigger this bug 100% of the time. The 2.12 version apparently does not like 3D-Applications either, since Tux Racer crashed the X-server to in a very reproducible fashion. The 2.13 version doesn't have quite the same problems. It handles screen resolution changes fine, and start games like Tux Racer and Scorch3D, nevertheless I had a few crashes of the X-server with 2.13, too. This bug was a little harder to trigger, but opening enough applications including 3D ones usually did the trick and killed X. After the bug was triggered once though, trying to start a 3D application always killed X and trying to play a movie with mplayer showed a blue window instead of the movie. So hope this helps. If you want me to test something else, let me know.
