The changelog sounds promising:

We have verified that several of the reported bugs of GPU crashes,
(mouse continues to move, but otherwise X is totally unresponsive), are
fixed with the commit by Keith Packard in 2.7.1 to correct the
computation of the batch space required. If you have previously reported
a GPU-crash bug in bugs.freedesktop.org, please test with 2.7.1 and
report your findings in the bug. If the crash is fixed, please celebrate
with us!

If the crash persists, please attach the output of intel_gpu_dump
available here (and hopefully packaged in your distribution of choice
soon):

	git://anongit.freedesktop.org/git/xorg/app/intel-gpu-tools
	(Requires Linux kernel >= 2.6.30)

Thanks to everyone who has helped to improve this driver!


Thanks for packaging it so quickly and lets hope we can celebrate with
the developers :)
