[Bug 601530] Re: [965gm] drm:i915_do_wait_request] *ERROR* i915_do_wait_request returns -5 (awaiting 150858 at 150857)

 

Same thing here.

This problem is affecting me since i started using a Dual Head schema
(Laptop Monitor + LCD monitor).

I'm having this problem since Ubuntu 9.10 and it's really annoying!!!! I
use dual monitors everyday at work, and when i leave work i put my
laptop in sleep mode hoping that when i get in class or home, all my
documents, programs and setup is going to be running as it should.

Sometimes i get lucky and Ubuntu wakes just fine, but most times it
crashes and i end up loosing all my setup and need to open all my
programs again.

This is bad because the system becomes untrusty... I keep saving my
things like crazy hoping that in one of these crashes i do not miss
anything unsaved...

My setup is a Dell Vostro 1400 (1440x900) + LG LCD 17' Monitor
(1280x800).

I have tried to solve this problem by switching to a Dell Vostro 1520
(1280x800) but it did'nt seem to work any better :(

Every new version of Ubuntu i try to quikly update to check if this
problem is fixed but it's not... I noticed that is not fixed even on
11.04... So i wont update, for now. I'm going to wait for 11.10.

I'm about to give up my Dual Head setup...

Another idea is to switch distro as Suraj have suggested that a newer
version of Xorg apparently fixes this. I think i'm going back to Gentoo.
It's complicated, and uses a lot of machine power to compile things, but
at least i can use newer versions of base software not depending on
Ubuntu.

Sorry for my bad english, i'm in a hurry.

Victor.
