> As a workaround for us 845 folks, is it feasible to roll back the
graphics architecture that relies on mesa, dri, etc and use the old i810
driver?

I liked the proposal made by Anthony. Seems like all we are trying to do
in this request is somehow "suppress" the calls/features which are
resulting in this "GPU hung" situation. But what we are missing here is
doing the suppression is impacting the user experience (as mentioned in
Comment #230 - Jean is finding the youtube videos "jerky" after
installing the patch)

Shall we start thinking in rolling back to the i810 driver? Can someone
explain me why we are not doing that?

Thanks!
