Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: xorg

With kms enabled + bootsplash:
- Everything looks fine and dandy, untill X loads. When X loads the mouse cursor is very garbled(is only recognizable as such because it moves), and nothing else is showing on the screen.. ctrl+alt+f1 does nothing. Caps-lock, etc, aren't responding.

With kms enabled, no bootsplash, VT only:
Resolution is changed. It looks great, and is very fast, but parts of the very bottom of the screen (1-2px) is filled with garbage.

This garbage is there even if the text on the screen hasn't reached the
bottom yet. Is there after a "reset" command.

With kms disabled: 
Everything is working fine.

If i, during an kms disabled, run
sudo /etc/init.d/gdm stop
sudo rmmod i915
sudo modprobe i915 modeset=1

i will get the garbled pixels in the bottom of the VT. And a

sudo /etc/init.d/gdm start

Will fail just as normal.

For some reason i can't explain, the Xorg.0.log.old file contains stuff
like this after the crash:

 powerful language for representing information. The library
 contains an RDF/XML parser/serializer that conforms to the
 RDF/XML Syntax Specification and both in-memory and persistent
 Graph backend.
 .
 This package also provides a serialization format converter
 called rdfpipe in order to deal with the different formats
 RDFLib works with.
