I solved the problem by inserting a boot parameter "intel_iommu=off" to

fine on console and with x. The kernel from buster did not need this
boot parameter.

Which package has the driver you're using? I propose we reassign this
package to that package for further investigation.

The i915 gpu driver belongs to the kernel: linux-image-amd64.

So, I reassign the bug report to the linux source package.

I first saw the problem with version 5.10.70-1
(linux-image-5.10.0-9-amd64). Now I'm using version 5.10.84-1
(linux-image-5.10.0-10-amd64) which also works fine using the boot
parameter "intel_iommu=off". Although I did not try this version in the
default configuration without this boot parameter.

It would help the Debian linux maintainers a lot if you could/want to try this with the latest version in bullseye. Just in case it got already fixed without going noticed inside Debian.
