I found workaround for GPU lockups (X freezes) on Intel i845 hardware at
official Xorg bug tracking system - see
http://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=26345

It's very simple - just create a /etc/X11/xorg.conf config file with
this content:

Section "Device"
  Identifier  "Card0"
  Option    "DRI"    "false"
  Option    "Shadow"    "true"
EndSection

I'm attaching xorg.conf file which fixes GPU lockups on Intel i845
hardware.

Also I found more info about solutions how to fix GPU lockups on Intel
i845 and i855 hardware at LP bug #541492 and bug #541511
