The system has been running with the xorg-edgers PPA drivers for a few
days. So far, none of the same GPU hangs have been encountered. However,
I'm now seeing intermittent crashes during use of the system, e.g.

Can we have a discussion on how things got to this point in the first
place? Why did Karmic ship with such a fatally flawed Intel driver? Who
made the decision that this code was suitable for a stable release?
