Bug#725781: xserver-xorg-video-intel: Failed to submit batch buffer, expect rendering corruption

[Ben Armstrong <synrg@sanctuary.nslug.ns.ca>]

Package: xserver-xorg-video-intel
Version: 2:2.21.15-1+b2
Followup-For: Bug #725781

Neither the latest xserver-xorg-video-intel nor new kernel (3.11.6-2
unstable or 3.12~rc7-1~exp1 experimental) fix the problem.

Furthermore, although my workaround switching the xrandr parameters back
and forth does lessen lagginess after initially triggering the bug, I
have discovered it actually is not a whole solution. From the point of
first appearance of the error to when the Xserver is shutdown and
restarted, neither mplayer nor vlc will display videos at all using
their default video output.

'mplayer -vo xv' displays this error repeatedly:

X11 error: BadAlloc (insufficient resources for operation)

There is no video output. 'mplayer -vo x11' is fine.

'vlc -vv' outputs this error repeatedly:

[0x7f1b94001248] xcb_xv vout display debug: cannot put image: X11 error 11

There is no video output.
