I tried passing nomodeset to the kernel on boot to disable KMS, but
still get identical freezes.  I will post a tarball of debugging info as
soon as I can.  (Desktop effects have been off the whole time I've seen
this bug.)

Interestingly, while 1280x1024 resolution is not available anymore (and
was available under jaunty!), it becomes available if I pass nomodeset
to the kernel.  Same freezes, though.

I also tried the xorg-edgers ppa with both the stock karmic kernel and
with the newest mainline kernel from kernel-ppa.  With xorg-edgers and
the stock karmic kernel, I get identical freezes.  With the newest
mainline kernel from kernel-ppa and xorg-edgers, I get a freeze that
behaves somewhat differently and seems to happen more frequently - plus
there are i915 errors printed on the first virtual console about
rendering errors with this kernel/xorg combination.  If I have a chance
I can submit tarballs of debugging info for all combinations of
kernel/xorg I've tried, but I'm unsure that it's the same bug.

I am open to any other advice or debugging techniques no matter how off-
the-wall.
