Thanks for the report. It appears the fact that old kernels prevented
the freeze was just a red herring: without a recent kernel, the newer
userspace driver couldn't enable some features related to the crash.

The real problem is probably in the Xorg driver. To narrow down when the
problem appeared, I have updated my PPA with a slightly newer version.
Could you try updating to the newer version, and report if that suffers
from the freezing bug?

If we can pinpoint where the bug first appeared, that will go a long way
toward solving it. I'll step forward every time I get word that the
current version appears to be working fine. When we find the first bad
version, I'll look at the changes between the two versions.

Oh, and for the sanity of anyone trying to read through this bug report,
let's write what versions of libdrm2 and xserver-xorg-video-intel we're
using whenever we report that the current PPA version is good or bad.
(You can look at these in Synaptic)
