Without the cairo patch (because it doesn't work for me) I managed to workaround
the bug creating a xorg.conf (I haven't done that for a while :)) containing
this:
Section "Device"
	Identifier "bla"
	Driver "intel"
	Option "AccelMethod" "XAA"
EndSection

note that my xorg-server is not built with hal (don't know if is important or
not)

Bapt
