Well, a compositing manager is not card-specific... (can end up running 
some proportion of different code on different cards, though e.g. 
depending on shader capability level).   Looking through the intel 
driver bugzilla [1], there are various "odd display artifact" type bugs. 
If you wouldn't mind reporting the bug to them [2], they might be able 
to diagnose.
