Subject:   annoying unexpected red strips on screen

Hi, all:
I'm now suffering some "unexpected red strips" on the screen, which  
frustrates me a lot. My box runs on a sandy bridge chip, and I've  
installed the latest xorg and Intel graphics drivers related ports from  
xorg-dev. It runs quite well except the red strips shown on my screen  
unexpectedly sometimes (not always, though). I also tried the xorg from  
our official ports tree but nothing improved (even worse).

BTW, I only install the xorg related and Intel graphics drivers from  
source code (ports tree), while others, such as firefox, eclipse, are  
installed from pre-compiled packages directly from this site:
http://dev.bsdrp.net/pkg/freebsd:9:x86:32/desktop/
