Here's the output from "inxi -Gxx":

Most installations include this. Did you start with a minimal installation and keep recommends disabled? It's a small and useful utility for X diagnosis.

I'll try switching to the Intel DDX after resolving Atri's suggestion. I currently have xorg-x11-driver-video installed and the following xf86-video-* packages:
xf86-video-fbdev xf86-video-vesa
Those are crude, useful mainly as fallbacks for diagnosis and repai.
Am I right that I can switch to the Intel DDX by just installing xf86-video-intel?
That's how it has always worked for me. /etc/X11/xorg_pci_ids/modesetting_ids supposedly exists to be able to override it, but it has only ever been a 2 byte placeholder for me.
I notice there's also xf86-video-intel-32bit; is there a reason it should be installed, too?
I didn't know it existed. I suppose Wine users might benefit from it. -- Evolution as taught in public schools is religion, not science. Team OS/2 ** Reg. Linux User #211409 ** a11y rocks!
