Bug#470249: xserver-xorg-video-intel: Frequent screen flashes and occasional persistent blank screen
Hi,
[sending this mail to some other bug reports that seem to cover the
same upstream bug]
this nasty bug seems to be fixed in the driver version 2.4.0, which is
currently in experimental. To workaround this bug on older versions,
try disabling framebuffer compression with this line in your device
section:
Option "FramebufferCompression" "off"
At least this helped to fix this bug for me.
Btw., the upstream bugs are:

Regards,
Tino
