Do you think using a newer version of xserver would help?
Always worth a try imo. But I wouldn't expect too much from doing this. The driver thinks, that a compute-kernel hangs or is deadlocked. If this assumption is correct, the userspace app needs a fix otherwise the driver is faulty. Is this problem related to running a special app or DE? Or does it happen "always"? Best, Michael
