Graphic corruption with i915 (2.6.39.1)

Hi, I've been experiencing sporadic graphic corruption since a few
stable kernel versions and I always thought "maybe is fixed in the next
release", so I upgrade, but I usually experience a different problem
then. This problems are exposed very rarely, maybe I have no problems
like for a month or so.

Now I'm using kernel 2.6.39.1 and I experience one of this problem so
I though it was time to report it. This is what I got in dmesg:

[368693.756008] [drm:i915_hangcheck_elapsed] *ERROR* Hangcheck timer elapsed... GPU hung

Here are 2 images of my desktop, without the graphic corruption first
