Package: xserver-xorg
Version: 6.8.2.dfsg.1-3
Severity: important

The current I810 driver /usr/X11R6/lib/modules/drivers/i810_drv.o isquite unstable and crashes a lot, especially when playing video. AlanHourihane's driver at http://www.fairlite.demon.co.uk/intel.html is muchbetter and the latest one has never crashed on my hardware. It suspectit will probably fix a few other bugs reported by people with Intel chips.
