Hi Christoph,

I think so, too!

This is exactly this i915/DRI module I have all the time be posting
about :-))

Put into the device section of the xorg.conf the NoDRI option and you
will see that your laptop starts without the i915 and DRI modules and
saves quite a bit of energy.
However, then, the resume from suspend fails for me.

best,
Volker
