It is well known (at least, in Japan) that problems occur frequently with Intel's drver i915. The reason for this is that i915 is positioned as the overall driver for all video chips. In other words, NVIDIA develops a new driver for every new generation, and this is a major difference between NVIDIA and Intel. This is the reason why I use NVIDIA video cards instead of Intel. This is my basic stance on James' issue.
