Title:
  KDE crashes at login with desktop effects enabled

Status in X.org xf86-video-intel:
  Fix Released
Status in xorg-server package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released
Status in xorg-server source package in Oneiric:
  Won't Fix

Bug description:
  I have a HP DV6 6121tx laptop, with Intel Core i7 sandybridge and a
  discrete GPU (Ati 6770m) and an Intel GPU.

  Whenever I login to Kubutu with desktop effects enabled, X crashes at
  the KDE splash screen and drops back to the login screen (kdm). Any
  subsequent logins work since KDE automatically disabled desktop
  effects after a crash.

  However, if I login with effects disabled and enable then _after_ logging in then everything works fine until I logout.
  I've also tested compiz, and it works without any problems.

  All packages are of latest version.

  Here's some more info:
