not really. there is no real cure against a buggy and incomplete
graphics driver than a correct and complete one. the best way to
get this is to report problems to the driver developers.

you can try to drop to minimalistic OpenGL support via setting
the environment variable VMDSIMPLEGRAPHICS to 1. for the linux
drivers for intel graphics, this "cures" most of the issues
(by not using features, that should be available, but are not
or don't work).
