The new driver really seems to have a major problem. I figured out that you just need an image with 2047px width to screw up the driver.

ATTENTION: This can crash your X server and corrupt memory!

Example: [1], an otherwise harmless picture. Every picture with the same width will work, too. I could trigger the bug at least with Firefox, Midori, Epiphany and EOG. It looks like some applications like Chromium alter the size, so they don't trigger it.
