Hi, I've been using archlinux and ubuntu for some (quite long) time, but I've never managed to fix this problem in arch.
Every miunte or so, my screen shows lots of noise in some places, it looks like if the display is broken, but it returns to it's normal state in much less than a second. It happens only in graphical mode, and with arch (not with ubuntu nor linux). I tried with and without KMS enable, but didin't help. With and without compiz, but it still happening.
Any idea?
JFI: I use GNOME, and I don't have a xorg.conf file

Just added de autogenereted xorg.conf and the error was fixed

No, that didn't solve the problem
Here is my xorg.conf:

Hi,
I'll try to help you (but I'm also new to Arch, not to GNU/Linux in general). Maybe adding more feedback could be helpful.
For example:
- What arch are you using? (i686, x86_64)
- etc.
Take a look to my help request in this thread.
BTW, as you own same Intel card as I do, I can help you directly. I setup Arch64 in 2 hours with an stand-alone Compiz desktop working (and it was all without needed to do weird things ;-) )
EDITED: it's 4:28 am here and I just missed you owned same card as I do.

Hi,
Here's some tips:
[drm] MTRR allocation failed. Graphics performance may suffer.
Add in GRUB conf file this switch at the end: enable_mtrr_cleanup.
It seems you're using KMS (there's no «(EE) intel(0): No kernel modesetting driver detected.» in Xorg.log), so if you have any "vga=NUMBER" switch in GRUB conf file you should remove it.
(WW) Open ACPI failed (/var/run/acpid.socket) (No such file or directory)
Install and configure acpid daemon.
And also, try loading it without any /etc/Xorg/xorg.conf file.

Done, but this stills appearing:
$ dmesg | grep fail
PM: Resume from disk failed.

Could you please show me your xorg.conf? I'm doubting about how to config which modules to load...
Just in case, here is my grub config:

I can't help you far from this point 'cause I don't own a Mobile 4 Series and never had MTRR problems. But searching I found many other people complaining about MTRR alocation issues too. That could be the source all your problem.
Some people said it was fixed by setting on mtrr cleanup in kernel compilation.
Could you please show me your xorg.conf? I'm doubting about how to config which modules to load...
I've no xorg.conf file (as I posted in the thread I pointed). I only needed to configure on the fly my touchpad with this lines at .xinitrc:
syndaemon -t -i 1 &
synclient RTCornerButton=3 &
synclient RBCornerButton=2 &
synclient VertEdgeScroll=1
synclient VertScrollDelta=45
synclient HorizEdgeScroll=1
synclient HorizScrollDelta=45

Thanks for your help, I couldn't fix it by now, but thanks

It seems to me that you ran into a very common problem with the more recent Intel kernel modesetting driver. There are lots of reports here about screen flickering and even totally blacking out after resume. It is a reported bug and AFAIK there is nothing you can do but wait for a patch. See e.g. this thread: http://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=87879

Thanks for that info
and hope it gets fixed soon

im not sure if this has already been disabled in 2.6.32, it definatly was in 2.6.33
append to the kernel boot parameter the following:
i915.lvds_downclock=0
im not sure if the issue you are having is the one fixed by this, but its worth the try im almost sure lots of flickering was fixed with it.
and if you never had flickering, or if this doesnt affect you, setting it to 1 will make i915 save some power
