>From watching the video, and your comments here, it is clear this is not
a driver bug (neither in the ddx nor opengl compositor). That leaves us
with hardware misconfiguration, aka kernel bug. Some of the artefacts
could be a display underrun. It would be good to check a drm.debug=0xe
dmesg for any warnings (and the info itself will be useful). Another
thing worth playing with is i915.enable_fbc=1 (though that is really
just swapping one problem with another).
