Package: xserver-xorg-video-intel
Version: 2:2.12.0+legacy1-1
Hi.
Apparently, I have the same hardware of the original reporter of this bug:
00:02.0 VGA compatible controller [0300]: Intel Corporation 82852/855GM
Integrated Graphics Device [8086:3582] (rev 02)
00:02.1 Display controller [0380]: Intel Corporation 82852/855GM Integrated
Graphics Device [8086:3582] (rev 02)
I have compiled a new kernel with package linux-source-2.6.32 (version
2.6.32-21), commenting out the blacklisted 855GM in file
drivers/gpu/drm/i915/i915_drv.c :

xserver-xorg-video-intel version 2:2.12.0+legacy1-1 is working with this i915
kernel module in KMS mode. I have some X crashes, but NEVER WHILE ACTIVELY
WORKING WITH THE COMPUTER (until now, it never happened with this or with
previous xserver-xorg-video-intel packages or kernels), only when the computer
is idle or xscreensaver is active. 2.12.0+legacy1-1 is better than previous
version, since when X crashes, it is always correctly restarted by gdm (with
2.9, when X crashed, it couldn't be restarted: the box was working - you could
use the console or ssh - but gdm couldn't restart X, and manually restarting X
got the computer frozen).
With 2.12.0+legacy1-1, if I boot with i915.modeset=0 in UMS mode, the computer
freezes when starting X with GDM (blank screen, no network access).
When I have time, I'll try to compile your shadow version and see what happens.
Is there a .deb package of the shadow version? It would be easier to try.
Thanks.
