Re: xorg problem with intel graphics GMA 945

I've experienced the same problem a while ago, but it disappeared with the xorg update. Which version of Xorg have you installed?
Mine is:

$ Xorg -version
X.Org X Server[b] 1.5.3[/b]
Release Date: 5 November 2008
X Protocol Version 11, Revision 0
Build Operating System: Linux 2.6.27-ARCH i686

And this is my intel-graphics-driver package which also came along with the new xserver:
xf86-video-intel (2.4.3-1)

The relevant entries in xorg.conf are the following:

Section "Device"
  Option "FramebufferCompression" "off"   # to avoid X going black sometimes (dont no why this happened...)
  Option "AccelMethod" "exa"              # these 2 entries ...
  Option "MigrationHeuristic" "greedy"    # ... could speed up rendering  
  Identifier "Card0"
  Driver "intel"
  VendorName "Intel Corporation"
  BoardName "Mobile 945GME Express Integrated Graphics Controller"
  BusID "PCI:0:2:0"
EndSection

I hopes this probably helps you in any kind of way.
