I am using Ubuntu 9.10 Karmic.  Since installing, I have had serious
freezes, with and w/o compiz, firefox, chrome, etc. etc.

Reverted to older drivers (2.4) using this guide
(https://wiki.ubuntu.com/ReinhardTartler/X/RevertingIntelDriverTo2.4).
This rendered both the graphical (window) and text interfaces (ttyX)
unusable :-(

Had to boot from CD to manually revert back the drivers so I can boot
properly.

Added Brian's PPA, updated.

Freezes appear with:
- Compiz enabled/disabled
- KMS enabled/disabled
- When watching video and actively using the laptop, after login when siting idle with nothing but the screensaver running, etc.

3 freezes in the last 4 hours :-(

When checking for hw or sw rendering I got:

4:17am alberto@triton:~>[4]glxinfo | grep renderer
do_wait: drmWaitVBlank returned -1, IRQs don't seem to be working correctly.
Try adjusting the vblank_mode configuration parameter.
OpenGL renderer string: Mesa DRI Intel(R) 852GM/855GM GEM 20090418 2009Q1 x86/MMX/SSE2

xserver-xorg-video-intel 5:2.8.1+karmic (from Brian)

Hope this helps.
