Bug#541117: xserver-xorg-video-intel: high CPU usage after 2.7.1-1 - 2.8.0-1 upgrade

Does this log come from a second X server while another X server was already using the DRM device? Damn, I don't know why I didn't notice that. No, it was the only X server running. But I took a look at my configuration and noticed that I had Disable dri because of bug 525123. I don't know what dri has to do with drm, but seeing that they have the first two letters I decided to comment that out and try running 2.8 again. Now, it performs well again! And, I don't see any of the issues from bug 525123 either (even though I can't remember quite what that looked like). In sum, on my X40: 2.7.1 2.8.0 empty configbug 525123 :-) Disable dri :-) bug 541117 I'm attaching two diffs of the log files. 2.7.1-2.8.0.diff compares 2.7.1 with 2.8.0, both with Disable dri. (I should have run this diff before I filed the bug, sorry.) enable_dri.diff compares 2.8.0 with Disable dri and without. Thanks for your help!

The effect on the text VCs was obvious, but when I tried to startx, it hung with a blank screen. BTW, the Xorg.0.log file included below is actually Xorg.0.log.old, since I'm running the downgraded X now. It is the log file that corresponds with the bad behavior. Any hints on where to look?
