** Description changed:

  xserver-xorg-video-intel version:   2.8.0-0u
  xserver-xorg-core version:  1.6.3-1u
  
  X crashes when using some applications as Google Earth.
  
  The crash is very easy to reproduce, as I noticed recently:
  1. Open Kolourpaint (KDE drawing program), and select the pen tool.
  2. Start drawing some doodle by pressing the left button of your mouse
     _without releasing it_ for at least 30 secs (keep the cursor moving).
  3. X crashes.
  
   
  here's a backtrace found in /var/log/kdm.log
