Yes. I am thinking that etch used the i810 driver and lenny uses the
intel graphics driver. You can use aptitude from the command line to
wipe the xorg and x11 related files and reinstall using etch. I use
synaptic to lock the versions to keep them from being updated and run
sid. I even tried the experimental 2:2.6.1-1
<
http://packages.debian.org/source/experimental/xserver-xorg-video-intel>
with no luck. From the deb package search page I notice there is another
version waiting to be packaged.
http://packages.qa.debian.org/x/xserver-xorg-video-intel.html
I even started to try compiling it from souce but a newer version of a
lib was missing from debian.
One big problem is with my setup the 3d performance is terrible but
that machine is used for a server and audio video on my desk and it
works fine for that.
