Hey Christophe,

It may sound stupid, but have you upgraded your installation? I experiecend problems like that with intel when I ran the janitor on a fresh install. once you apt-get upgrade everything works fine though... just a quick thought very late in the night/early in the morning. ;)

br,
           Patrick
