If you feel like downgrading the severity, no lower than "serious",
please. This driver is not suitable for lenny.
As reported by others, since the 2.2.x branch of intel driver, X is
going randomly in some suspend mode, and the only way out of it is a plain
reboot. Sucks.
Do you have multiple outpus connected enabled when the crash happens? It
seems to be related in some cases.
Does
Option "FramebufferCompression" "false"
help?
Can you try with some other kernels? I sometimes felt like 2.6.18 didn't
cause any crash while >=2.6.22 does. Not sure about 2.6.24 or later.

Hello Brice,
and thanks a lot for the information provided. Using "Option
FramebufferCompression false" did fix both this problem (and the one
reported in Bug#466462).
X11 hasn't crash or gone in this unstoppable suspend mode for the last 4
weeks.

Nope, macmini with a single screen attached

I didn't do any test but my current kernel = 2.6.22-3 was having this pb.
