No, please don't. That bug has "mga g550" in the subject line and
links a Matrox MGA specific ticket at

  https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=2991

so if you have problems with a different graphics chipset, look for a
different ticket or open a new one. Intel 810 is affected, too, and
tracking bugs and bug fixes results in a mess as long as it's unknown
whether all the problems with multiple chipsets are due to the same bug.
