I understand, then this also could be BIOS-related. An update of the BIOS
might fix it, too. But I don't won't to hassle with that. I'd also called
this bug fixed.

Apart from that, I sometimes experience an apparent total freeze upon logout
from X (LCD totally dark, no pattern visible, system does not respond anymore).
I don't know whether this is related to the 2.x-version of the Intel-driver or
anything else. I will try to reproduce it and see whether this is related to the
driver.
