[Bug 477256] Re: [i855] Xserver freezing on Toshiba Satellite A10 (Intel 82852/855GM)

 

Irihapeti, in bug 447892 comment 23 it was suggested to use xorg-edgers
with the option DebugFlushCaches. Could you use that for your
batchbuffer dump, since it will most likely make it easier for the
developers to make sense of it.

Also, except for the batchbuffer dump, we prefer to have files attached
separately and not in an archive. That makes it much easier to look at
them through the web interface. It would be nice if you could copy
/var/log/Xorg.0.log at the same time as you are making the batchbuffer
dump (when you are logged in via SSH and the computer is frozen).

** Changed in: xserver-xorg-video-intel (Ubuntu)
       Status: Incomplete => Confirmed

** Description changed:

  Binary package hint: xserver-xorg-video-intel
  
  After installing Xubuntu Karmic on this laptop, I'm having regular
  Xserver lockups, as in once per session. The mouse pointer still moves,
  but clicking does nothing and the keyboard is disabled. I can use the
  Alt-SysRq-REISUB commands, but the reboot that follows doesn't complete.
  The only way to clear this is by a complete power-down. The time before
  the freeze occurs varies but would usually be less than 15 minutes.
  
  I have tried using the standard Xserver-xorg-video-intel with DRI
  disabled, and a retro version of the same package, but the problem
  persists. Also tried adding "nomodeset" to the kernel command line when
  booting, which likewise made no difference.
  
  Hardy has run without issue on this machine, and as far as I can tell,
  Jaunty also. (I ran it for an hour or more from the live CD without
  problems.)
  
  The batchbuffer dump archive is attached. I reinstalled the standard
  Xserver-xorg-video-intel package for this test.
+ 
+ PS: This was spun off from bug 447892, since it doesn't seem to be the
+ same freeze.
