Why not? :-)

Because I'm seeing (one day and another, in this same list and in other
Debian lists) that Intel driver is failing (crashing) very often and
doesn't seem to provide an easy method to bypass these problems.



Well, I don't want to start a war, but I have machines with Intel,
nvidia and ati graphic card. Intel one has proved to be the stable one
over the past two and a half years. And it was going to be a must for
future machines. So I will follow this link to see how it resolve. But,
also you are running your own kernel and you said that stock kernel are
not a trouble....

Intel drivers have been very stable, yes, but my personal feeling is that
they were until KMS entered into play and this is just my personal point
of view, do not take it as a "plain fact" which is not, this feeling
comes from the comments/posts I'm reading in another linux mailing lists.

OTOH, is not "me" who has a custom kernel but the OP ;-)
