Xorg logfile reads:
(EE) intel(0): Failed to submit batch buffer, expect rendering corruption or even a frozen display: No space left on device.

This happens with both 2.10.0 and today's git, as well as c1afc831c8fe4cbececee7dfa23506a6746c2425 (Dec 8 2009), as I documented in bug 24753.

xorg.conf is empty except for the DebugFlushCaches option.
