If I remember correctly, your kernel is 3.3-rc1 plus an unrelated

Yes.
Am I correct in guessing that the glitches in font rendering didn't
happen again?
Since installing the debugwait option the problem seems to have gone away.
I hear that the way forward is SNA, which is enabled in the
xserver-xorg-video-intel package in experimental.
SNA? I haven't used SNA for 20 odd years. :-)
I don't know if it
requires any particular patches on top of linus's master for
kernel-side support. cc-ing the Debian intel driver maintainers in
case they can give a hint.
Great! I'll get this fixed in time for my once every 6 years machine
replacement. :-)
Should be pretty easy to get everything on a Vaio Z2 working, right. :-)
