Re: [Bug 359392] Re: [i965] X freezes starting on April 3rd

 

IMHO, please stop with all the discussion about what should have been
done, or if linux is ready for the desktop and whatnot.

We have a stable release that is recommended as stable to users. ALL
users.

this stable release has a known problem with intel drivers, the
problem was reported as a bug and is being worked on. This is the
proper way to address the issue.

When a workaround is found, it should be recommended to all users, or
if it entails a regression, it should be pushed into the update path
as a temporary fix (unitl now, i haven't found the problem again with
the updated intel drivers in the jaunty backports).

"upgrade to karmic alpha" is not a viable workaround for users, so
please, recommend what to do to avoid this problem within jaunty,
while the bug is solved.

Has anyone bothered to thoroughly check which update produced the
error for the first time?
