Yes, I have narrowed it down. I did not run bisect, as it takes me 4hrs
for kernel build on Eeepc...

The problem has appeared in 3.1-rc3, it is a regression.
I have tested -rc1 and -rc2, they are OK ( not that there was much
activity regarding i915 in -rc2). The problem is still present in -rc7.

I see these entries in the changelog, these are Keith's additions to
-rc3 which maight impact the blanker:

Keith Packard (6):
drm/i915: Wait for LVDS panel power sequence
drm/i915: Leave LVDS registers unlocked
drm/i915: Fix PCH port pipe select in CPT disable paths
drm/i915: Remove unused 'reg' argument to dp_pipe_enabled
drm/i915: Can't do accurate vblank timestamps with UMS
drm/i915: Cannot set clock gating under UMS

I can do a fast incremental rebuild of my current -rc3 tree, if Keith could send me some patches...

Thanks, Woody
