** Description changed:

  Binary package hint: xserver-xorg-video-intel
  
  This is a MASTER bug report, i.e. not a real bug report, but a tool to
  help manage other bug reports.
  
  Most bug reports on i845 are probably due to the CPU/GPU incoherency
  problem that is now consolidated upstream at
  http://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=26345 . For now, we mark all
  automatically reported GPU lockups as duplicates of this unless there is
  a reason not to.
  
- There is now a potential fix upstream. Brian Rogers has packaged the
- latest xserver-xorg-video-intel from upstream which contains this fix at
- https://launchpad.net/~brian-rogers/+archive/experimental/ . It would be
- nice if you could test this and report ON YOUR OWN BUG REPORT[*] if this
- fixes the problem, helps somewhat but it still hangs, makes no
- difference, or fails in a completely new and exciting way.
+ There is now a potential fix upstream. A driver package with the
+ backported fix is available in the PPA

+ the problem, helps somewhat but it still hangs, makes no difference, or
+ fails in a completely new and exciting way.
  
  There is a similar master bug report for i855 at bug 541511.
  
  [*] We want this information to follow your bug report if we later
  unduplicate it. So just ignore that yellow box telling you not to
  comment unless you think the duplicate status is wrong. An email with
  the comment will anyway be sent to all the subscribers of the master bug
  report.
