There is a newer version of X that I noted today. The version is the 
same as you described. I guess adding your xorg-x11 log to the report 
will give insight into their progression or regression regarding the 815 
video card.

I might try to isolate the i810 driver from the working version, rename 
it to i815, then change my xorg.conf to i815 and see what happens after 
installing the latest beta. This is probably not a rational solution, 
but a learning experience anyway.
