Here's the kernel fix.  I've been told this is included in 2.6.30-rc2:

    drm/i915: Allow tiling of objects with bit 17 swizzling by the CPU.

queued to linus


The kernel team has prepared a PPA of 2.6.30-rc2:

PPA:  http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/v2.6.30-rc2

<rtg> bryce: 2.6.30-rc2 has a bunch of i915 patches from Dave Arlie. He
claims big performance improvements which likely address out issues in
Jaunty. Is it possible for you to run that kernel somewhere and test the
results? http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/v2.6.30-rc2

@olskar, keep in mind that Jaunty is already in final freeze.  Your
question should s/when//.
