Indeed, the PPA now says:

== WARNING: xserver-xorg-video-intel -
2:2.7.99.1+git20090502.cfb98f3d-0ubuntu0sarvatt2 and newer do not have
EXA/XAA/XvMC support! ==

If you still have the working xorg-server and xserver-xorg-video-intel
packages (and their build rules), could you make them available so we
could set up a specific PPA for Intel users that fixes the issue? I'd
like to try it myself, but now the package is not available anymore.

Just ranting again, but I still think this situation is unacceptable.
I reinstalled from the final Jaunty CD, and even with the provided
driver and effets disabled I still have graphical glitches. So long
for "stability". I am really close from dropping Ubuntu on this one.
