Yes it's still present. The message error on pinned object is displayed
every time I shut down xdm. But I can't remember if this was the case in
December too. As far as I remember, there the message appeared more
often and not only during shut down of the X server.
On the other hand, screen flickering and blanking has gone since I
disabled power saving of i915. And as far as I know it has been disabled
in latest version of 2.6.32 ex factory because of this.
Regards,
Dirk
