[Bug 707202] [NEW] X Freezes when un-blanking screen

 

Public bug reported:

I just updated xserver-xorg-core and xserver-common this morning to
version 2:1.7.6-2ubuntu7.5 and have had three freezes today when un-
blanking the screen which I've never seen before.  Both times it seemed
to be re-drawing the screen, and froze in the middle of that process, so
shaded window borders were etched but not re-filled, etc.  Can't switch
to a text VT via ctrl-alt-f1 etc, can't ctrl-alt-delete.  Pushing the
power button briefly results in hard drive activity, otherwise the
machine is completely unresponsive.

I run compiz with Lucid, and had open: OO.o, Evolution, Firefox, Emacs
23, Gnumeric, and GNOME Terminal open (I think GIMP the first time as
well, but not the second).  Intel driver (version 2:2.9.1-3ubuntu5
installed 2010-05-31), Mobile GM965/GL960 rev 0c on a Dell Latitude
D830n (= D830 without Windows).
