intel videocard performance degraded severely after 9.4 update



Hi,

I updated my trusty R52 ThinkPad to 9.4 - i915.
All went quite well.

wifi is unreliable - but that is most probably the same isue I have on
the T30 and I am already investigating that with Martin.

X11 performance however is close to unusable, even a simple xterm has
issues scrolling and there are artifacts in redrawing, sometimes
garbage, something wrong colors in the title bar!
With 9.3 it wasn't a a gaming platform, but quite usable for terminal
and programming.
I think that console switch sometimes had it loose acceleration, but it
was never so bad and never had artifacts.

wscons look and perform fine, the issue is X11.

these errors look a bit scary, but I am pretty sure  the fifo underrun
was there before.
However *ERROR* failed to load DMA map for stolen object: -22 is new.


In Xorg.0.log I see:
[  1561.785] (EE) intel(0): Failed to submit rendering commands (Invalid
argument), disabling acceleration.

that doesn't look promising!
