(CONFIG_INTEL_MEI_ME is strongly advised to be disabled at this
time as its logging is completely insane, it can spew several
hundred lines a second)

I've got a few problems when upgrading ALT kernels:
- 3.4 to 3.7 => https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=71493
- 3.7 to 3.9 => https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=59841
- intel_pstate is somewhat controversial on a laptop as well

Running 3.10.x for quite a few weeks is more or less OK here.

As for wistron-btns - 3.4 behaves the same, but at least the reason is
known: "kernel tried to execute NX-protected page".

Is it global protection for some data areas, or can be disabled for
particular addresses by some function call, missing in wistron-btns module?
(I think there should be a way to call some PC BIOS code from kernel)

There are metacity-theme-Simple and gnome-themes-standard and old
gnome-theme package (2.34).
GDM shows only blinking cursor (both on 2.6.38.8 and longterm-3.4.x;
IIRC 3.10.x was even worse).

No systemd running.

It may be the GDM problem I wrote some time ago.

Do you have GNOME/Metacity themes installed?

And with systemd GDM must be started from a systemd unit – testing
'manually' from root session won't work.

Greets,

wistron-btns module oopses during load (on Amilo Pro 8210; module is
needed to unblock hardware rfkill on this machine).
I'll check 3.4 later; previously there was some late 2.6.x on this
laptop.

There is also some issue with blank X display (intel hardware); I'm not
sure if it's related to kernel driver, new X.org server/driver or new gdm.

More than a year (and you can add a few months as a master to this):

Out of curiosity, how long actually was current longterm kept?
