Comment:

 For the time being, you should be able to remove/rename the
 "intel_extreme" driver from /boot/system/add-ons/kernel/drivers/bin.
 (Renaming will break a link to this driver which also disables it.) That
 will then give you VESA graphics. On notebooks, the VESA BIOS usually
 includes the native resolution of the panel, so that you don't have any
 drawbacks. In any case, we reserve the "high" priority for more serious
 bugs. I know it sucks for you if this bug doesn't get fixed (although the
 above should help), but please don't try to push the urgency.
