Hello, we expierenced the same issue on a Nexcom NISE 3500M2E industrial computer (http://www.nexcom.com/Products/industrial-computing-solutions /fanless-computer/high-performance-platform/fanless-computer-nise- 3500m2e) running kubuntu 12.04
We observed a lot of EDID activity in the Xorg log when the system lags. With kernel 3.2.0-29-generic-pae i686 i386 this happens some seconds after the UI came up. With the kernel options i915.i915_enable_rc6=0 i915.i915_enable_fbc=0 i915.semaphores=1 i915.modeset=1 the system works stable until we are using a bt878 based framegrabber hardware with direct overlay (XVideo). XVideo is necessary to keep the latency short (its in a robitic application, the system is behind the operator's console). As a current work around, we are using Kernel 3.5.3 from http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/v3.5.3-quantal/. the system is far more stable but the lags still happen from time to time. This seems to be in conjunction with i2c bugs fixed in the i915 kernel driver.
