Not fixed here. I upgraded the Vaio to Oneiric yesterday and am seeing
font corruption after running it for about 2.5 hours this morning with
several suspends.

I'm also seeing the i915 module loaded in oneiric. I can't test what
module it used in natty (replaced that partition in the upgrade) but
Debian Squeeze, which also shows the problem, loads i915 just like
oneiric does.

I'm not convinced using lots of fonts makes a difference -- I've seen it
when I wasn't doing much more than rehearsing/presenting a talk, with
only a few fonts on the slides.  I think running for a while is more
important (usually several hours, though once or twice I've seen it
sooner than that). Suspending may be relevant; I've never seen
corruption in a run where I didn't suspend at least once, but it's rare
that I have my laptop running that long without suspending.
