if intel driver for ixx is so unstable why not put it into blacklisted
driver list and let advanced users take their own risks by activating it
and let basic user profit to their desktop with a simple vesa driver in
2D ? Why not implement a mechanism like proprietary drivers ?

The main problem now, is not how to fix all theses bugs. We know
developers work about them. It's learn about this case and take a
decision for the next release. Decisions makers should say something
like that: "Yes we took a bad decision and made a big mistake with this
release about intel ixx driver. We'll now reflect about what to do in
the future..."

But I doubt we never had to heard something like that.
