Actually, I'm not using modules -- everything is build-in. Can you try
that config? Perhaps you can then reproduce the failure.

So far it failed 100% of time, but this is my main machine, so
bringing it down for extended periods is no-no.
Greetings to Prague :-). Jiri, do you have i915 a module or build-in?
