I've found a workaround for this myself by simply dropping back to the gutsy
X11 client library (/usr/lib/libX11.so.6).
Just get a copy of that library from gutsy and put it on your (in my case
intrepid) machine under a different directory. Then put that directory in the
library path eg:
mkdir /root/fixTheXClient
cp -Pv gutsymachine/usr/lib/libX11* /root/fixTheXClient
Then whenever you want to run a program with sensible speed graphics:
export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/root/fixTheXClient:$LD_LIBRARY_PATH
{run your program}
You can check it's going to use the right one with:
ldd {your_program}
