it works on a GM965/GL960 (00:02) with ubuntu 8.10 + the mesa patch above (comment 15) without any issues on my side.

I created a deb for libgl1-mesa-dri_7.2-1ubuntu2_i386 from source and added the patch.
The limit is now 4096x4096 where it was 2048x2048 before.

If you need help how to do that by yourself read http://sarth.thallos.org/2009/01/building-from-source-package-on-debian.html

As you can read above, others had issues with the same steps but on my side its fine.
