My monitor is driven with a higher refresh rate than allowed by the
new driver: 60.02 Hz delivered vs. 60 Hz allowed, says the monitor.
Manually forcing Xorg with xrandr to use 59.9 Hz works.

And moving Xv windows around crash the X server.

Sorry, but more details are available in a week

My card (Lenovo T400, again):

In my opinion: If you have a laptop with this chip, stay to
xf86-video-intel 2.5.1. It works, but OpenGL apps create graphic
artifacts in 2D windows.
