[user fix] yay! choppy netbook video fixed ;-)

[wizard10000]

Did a little digging and found out how to fix the choppy video problem on my netbook - it's been irritating me for weeks.

Had to get the information from Xorg.0.log bit the solution was to disable tiling in X. Driver and identifier are in the log but I had to create /etc/xorg.conf - which contains only this:

Section "Device"
Identifier "Builtin Default intel Device 0"
Driver "intel"
Option "Tiling" "false"
EndSection

You can load a program called "driconf" from the repository. It has that and many other options for Intel chips for Mesa DRI software.
