First of all, I'm glad that you haven't lost your attention on this topic!

No, Xorg starts and works as normal until I start playing some videos (firefox,
mplayer -vo xv or -vo gl) and keep watching for a few minutes.
The duration until Xorg gets stuck varies from time to time.

> What's U-K? What do you mean by hopping? CPU usage spikes in top(1)?

Sorry for unclear wording.
I mean that Xorg seems to call ioctl either too frequently or ioctl busy-loops
inside drm (I'm not certain).

> Did you see anything unusual in Xorg.log? Mainly look for (EE) lines.

Nothing special.

> Does enablig DRI3 in xorg.conf help? xf86-video-intel defaults to DRI2 unlike modesetting.

I never thought xf86-video-intel still defaults to DRI2!
I'll test the v7.3 with DRI3 enabled first, then will try v8.
