Heh, you have to explain a lot more than that.  Did the issue only occur
after installing the fix?  Do you have GPU lockups matching this bug
prior to the black screen?  Or do you see GPU error codes matching this
bug when it is black screened?  What is your graphics card?

In general, I would suggest to all, unless you KNOW you have this exact
bug, or if you have found a regression which is traceable specifically
to this fix, let's handle your issue on separate bug reports, not here.
That should help spare people from lots of extraneous email...

It's not a bad idea.  I've filed this as bug #775093, feel free to
subscribe if you'd like to follow it.  I plan on spending some time
reworking X diagnostic tools during oneiric, and this would fit with
those plans.
