[Bug 450853] Re: [i945] Screen goes unresponsive on Intel 945 Chipset

 

I have uploaded a newer version of mesa to my PPA
(https://launchpad.net/~gomyhr/+archive/old/+packages). Whether this
freezes or not will provide a good starting point for a git-bisect in
order to find a bad commit.

There is a tutorial for bisecting mesa at
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/X/BisectingMesa and a more detailed account at
http://tuxpool.blogspot.com/2009/12/bisecting-mesa-bug-446632.html .
Both web pages have ATI chipsets, so instead of r100, r200 and radeon
drivers, i915 is probably the right driver for 945G chipsets.

It would also be useful if those that are affected by this bug could
test Lucid to verify that the bug stil exist there (that is where it can
potentially be fixed). With Lucid, we would also appreciate a
batchbuffer dump. There are instructions for how to get that at
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/X/Troubleshooting/Freeze .
