We get the same bug. It seems that the problem is not present with the
xserver-xorg-video-intel (2:2.1.1-0ubuntu-9) available on Gutsy CD-ROM.
The problem comes with updates done when using internet sources.list
repositories.

So in order to bypass the problem on our machines we downgrad the
package with the old version. We thus add the following lines to
/etc/apt/preferences :

Package: xserver-xorg-video-intel
Pin: version 2:2.1.1-0ubuntu-9
Pin-Priority: 2000

Then we use the following command to install it :

apt-get --reinstall install xserver-xorg-video-intel=2:2.1.1-0ubuntu9
