I found the problem, it has to do with compiz, when I have desktop-effects enabled and 16bit color, I have little dots all over the video, when I disable compiz/desktop-effects I do not get the dots all over the screen. So this seems to be a compatibility issue or problem with compiz and i810 driver and should be fixed since 16bit enabled will give better effects which are faster.
