[Bug 580449] Re: [i965gm] X often crashes when starting xmoto levels (i915 GPU hung)
Some more hints on the problem from developer communication:
<tod> xmoto test if the graphic card handles the pixel shaders
<tod> before using the pixel shaders functions
<tod> so it seems your card is telling xmoto that it can handle it, but then it hangs when xmoto ask to use them
....

so, it means that the driver pretends to support these features, but it
seems that there are not well developped in the driver and make the program
crash.
