https://bugs.freedesktop.org is where the upstream developers of the
intel drivers (and the whole Xorg too) deal with bugs.
http://bugs.debian.org is where Debian bugs are reported. When a Debian
bug is actually not Debian-specific, we usually do not fix it ourself
(unless there is an obvious fix), we forward the bug report it on
bugzilla.freedesktop.org and wait for upstream developer to fix it.

If your bug is the same than one above, then upstream is already
notified of your problem and there is no need to notify it again unless
we have some interesting detail to add to the discussion. We can just
mark the Debian bug as "forwarded" as one of the URL above and follow
what happens there. That's why I'd like to know whether you think you
problem is explained there.

Even outside of beryl/compiz? XAANoOffscreenPixmaps might help for these
compositing window manager, but should not bring any improvement in
regular window managers (and hurts basic 3D performance).
