Thanks for the report and analysis. Please test the attached patch
against 2.6.32.y or a squeeze kernel. If it works, we can send this
to Greg for inclusion in the 2.6.32.y series so everyone benefits.
Hope that helps,
Jonathan

Subject: drm/i915: Attempt to fix watermark setup on 85x (v2)
commit 8f4695ed1c9e068772bcce4cd4ff03f88d57a008 upstream.
IS_MOBILE() catches 85x, so we'd always try to use the 9xx FIFO sizing;
since there's an explicit 85x version, this seems wrong.
v2: Handle 830m correctly too.
