Intel video problems in f11 x64


I have a X3100 Video graphics adapter. I installed F11 and working find since last update. When trying to log in the X restarts over and over again. I created a new user and works fine. I discover that if I switch on "Desktop Effects" the system crashes. Another thing that didn't work is the ability to change the brightness
I asked in Fedora forums and someone tells me that was a problem with the last X11 Intel driver. My question are:
How can I solve the problem??
How can back from the upgrade?? I don't know the package name and the dependences involved.
Thank's

I have the same problem.

Looks like kernel 2.6.30.5 is having problem with display driver.

I have take a look at 2.6.31 Changelog but still no word about this problem being solved.

Maybe we have to wait...

Meanwhile, try old kernel such as 2.6.29.x

OK. I use to update via the graphical version of yum. I reinstalled all and update all but the kernel and all wath have a xorg.... name.
Because the update manager reports every day I can see option to update to 2.6.30.... but not to 2.6.31....
If I update to 2.6.30... then can I see the 2.6.31 option?. or may I do the update to 2.6.31 by hand?
