Somewhere - and I can't find the reference now - I read that an effective workaround is to create /etc/X11/xorg.conf with the following content.

Section "Device"
 Identifier "Intel"
 Driver "intel"
 Option "DebugWait" "True"
EndSection

I've found that this works on my EeePC 900. I had to reboot, not just log out, before it took effect. Maybe just restarting the xserver would work as well.
