Got an update. I tried a fine tune on my xorg.conf (attached).
Adding the statement:
 Option "DRI" "False"
into the "Device" section fixes the corruption of virtual consoles, so now the text appears perfect. This works with any kernel I tried: 2.6.34rc7, 2.6.34 (final), 2.6.33-4, 2.6.32-22 (bundled with lucid lynx) whilst still enabling tv out using `mplayer -vo dfbmga clip.avi' brings to desktop corruption and still gdm can't run at 1280x1024.

As a side note, disabling DRI slows down 3D performances, so now glxgears running at full screen reports 76 fps (enabling DRI I get 190 fps).
