After considering that many different video graphics drivers exhibit
this fault, I decided to focus on the kernel's DRM (Direct Rendering
Manager) code since it is common to all reports.

There has been a lot of change in the DRM code since the Lucid kernel
was released with Linux v2.6.32. As a quick check I installed the Natty
kernel via the "linux-image-generic-lts-backport-natty" package in the
lucid-proposed archive. This contains the Linux v2.6.38 kernel.

So far I've been unable to trigger the fault since booting the v2.6.38
kernel via any of the triggers that were guaranteed to cause the fault
with v2.6.32.

I suggest others affected by this fault try the same kernel update to
confirm this is a viable solution.
