Package: xserver-xorg-video-intel
Version: 2:2.8.0-1
Severity: important
Hello,
starting with 2:2.8.0-1 xserver-xorg-video-intel leads to X eating 100%
CPU when running applications like firefox, even simple xterms lead to
high load.
Furthermore, when I try to play some video with mplayer (vo=xv), the X
server crashes immediately.
I'm running it on an Asus P5E-V HDMI with Intel G35 chipset.
Downgrading to 2:2.7.1-1 solves these issues.
I'm not sure if this belongs somehow to #535300 - it sounds similar.
However, #535300 is marked as fixed in 2:2.7.99.901-2.
