Stellarium and Intel video bug workaround

This is just an informational forum post to let all know there is now a fix for the Intel video chips and Stellarium software bug that has been plaguing many users as of late. The workaround is described in Post #35 here: https://bugs.launchpad.net/stellarium/+bug/426417

Basically just:

pacman -S driconf

Then run "driconf" and turn off tiling. If you need 3D effects then use advanced features of driconf to turn off tiling for the Stellarium application only.
