[Bug 1503731] [NEW] 15.04 freezes totally using Intel(i915) on BayTrail / ValleyView SoC(J2900 CPU)
Public bug reported:
Behavior:
Ever since I first installed 15.04 back in April/May on my new DELL
Inspiron 3646:
Handle 0x0001, DMI type 1, 27 bytes
System Information
Manufacturer: Dell Inc.
Product Name: Inspiron 3646
I have experienced frequent(daily/every-other-day)complete
lockups(cannot even switch to console(Alt-F1,F2,etc.).
I have determined that the issue is related to the 'i915' driver in relation to my GPU:

I have gained _significant_ improvements in reliability / stability by
using various flags / parameters in the i915 module:
/etc/modprobe.d/i915.conf:
options i915 semaphores=1
and / or
/etc/default/grub:
