It seems that this bug still persists for me. I got an X-server "hiccup"
once again and lost an X  for this boot session. So I have to compose
this from the emacs-nox.

uname: Linux  2.6.32-24-generic #41-Ubuntu SMP Thu Aug 19 01:38:40 UTC
2010 x86_64 GNU/Linux

I am pretty sure that I disabled the power manager. When I had this
crash last time on a recent maverick kernel (happened only once for me)
I saw   the power-manager enabled somehow. With maverick kernels I
tended to have  longer uptaime (10-15 days)

uptime : 22:42:08 up 3 days, 12:52,  2 users,  load average: 0.19, 0.33, 0.69
 
This time I was running stellarium which is pretty CPU intensive.

It is a pretty annoying bug suffered by most i915 based chips. Does anyone know if there is "any light in the end of the tunnel"?
In turn, I will get an updated maverick kernel to keep testing it.
