Unfortunately, the new intel driver has problems on old chipsets like
yours. Another debian user reported similar problems in [1], and the
problem is known upstream at [2].
Some bugs have been fixed in the upstream git repository since we
release 2:2.0.0-5, we should upload a new git snapshot in experimental
in the near future. In the meantime, feel free to build your own git
snapshot and let us know whether it helps. Or just keep using the old
xserver-xorg-video-i810 from Etch/stable.
Cheers,
