I *think* Luis was referring to some errors I reported repeating Xorg
crashes with the intel driver to the list last October ([1], [2], [3]).
I couldn't resolve them, and after rolling back to 7.0 RELEASE, and
still getting them, I gave up and replaced my laptop machine with a
desktop with nvidia. 
It would probably be worth getting Luis to restate his problem!
