Seems like it only affects i945 chips, so maybe a bug in the intel driver?

I upgraded Jaunty this morning, and after a reboot, my system was utterly slow and sluggish as soon as I started the GNOME session. boot and gdm worked fine, and a failsafe X-Terminal only session works fine as well.

I bisected this to the upgrade of libxrandr2 from 2:1.2.3-1 to 2:1.2.99.2-0ubuntu1.

This is a Dell Latitude D430
