Description:
After upgrading xf86-video-intel to 2.7.99.901-1, X is very broken. I don't know the techincal term, but it looks like the pixels get smudged about over the screen (see attached image).

Additional info:
Hardware is an Eee 701SD:
00:02.0 VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation Mobile 915GM/GMS/910GML Express Graphics Controller (rev 04)
00:02.1 Display controller: Intel Corporation Mobile 915GM/GMS/910GML Express Graphics Controller (rev 04)
xorg.conf is attached (worked with previous package I had installed, whatever that was - I cleaned /var/cache/pacman/pkg since the last upgrade).

Steps to reproduce:
Use X.
