I have an i915 mobo, specs and backtraces and other info found in the bugs I
posted on freedesktop....

If I have more than 4 gigs of ram, X may display corrupted graphics and will
lock quickly.

Didn't have the issue in 2.4.2 on an older kernel.

If I play videos in mplayer w/ GL output while it's rendering subtitles, text
becomes corrupt in mplayer, and X will hardlock very quickly.  If I SSH in and
kill X, I can't restart it as the card is put into a bad state.

Also didn't have the issue in 2.4.2 on an older kernel.

If UXA is off(it is by default), and I have < 4 gigs of ram, _AND_ the option
in the bios to set aside memory for the gpu is set to as low as possible(32 vs
128, this is key), and I don't run a compositing 3d window manager, and I don't
watch videos with subtitles, and I run the latest git builds of mesa, anholt's
kernel patches, libdrm, with divine intervention and angels swarming to caress
my pc gently, X is stable.

Anything less and X will lock instantly after getting in.
