Since you have an EeePC I'm guessing your graphics card is an i9xx of
some variety. The i9xx kernel driver seems to have been recently
reworked so even those people who aren't using GEM yet are seeing issues
here and there (some with VT switching, some with suspend to ram and
others with suspend to disk). I actually don't know if the stuff poping
up is any more than usual but if so I'm hoping most new issues go away
once the dust settles...
