Survived overnight test. Had one Open-GL crash, but stability is clearly
much improved under kernel 2.6.35.24 (after patches are re-installed.
stability was poor prior to re-installation but I cannot pinpoint which
patch was lost in the kernel upgrade (driver? 855-patch?). Does anyone
know any
Xserver-Xorg-Driver-Intel Gitxx722 exhibited some stability regression
especially when compared to Git710. I have also noticed that kernel
upgrades tend to obliterate the add-on packages for the fix, and that
these need to be re-installed to be effective. I currently have the
fixes applied to new
Thanks Mike, I'll give the modprobe command a try. If the module is really
loaded in 2.6.35 then it should come online.
Hopefully the wireless driver integration will be up to the usual standards by
time of release.

MASTER: [i845] GPU lockup (apport-crash) (Should KMS be blacklisted?)
Passable stability with drover git716, random screensavers cycle for
several hours, with eventual freezes on open GL (implying that perhaps
upgrade to Mesa 7.8.2 might be in order). Upon freeze, X does not crash,
and desktop can be recovered, however, attempting to open the
screensaver control
Are steps being taken to have this kernel incorporated in the Lucid
release? I'd use it not but my i845 uses ralink2870 wireless drivers
(currently uncompiled in Rodger's kernel), and the compilation process
is about 12-steps long (why ralink rt2870 is not in the repositories is
a mystery).

Thanks Mike,
First thing I did was try the blacklisting route, in all possible permutations,
but the best I could do was to get the rt2800usb to come online, at 1kb/s, yuk!
No I know that the rt2870.ko module works, but there was no operational sign of
it anywhere on the system with Rodgers'
Felix,
I'm not using the Rogers kernel at all. Because it is not cleared for
Ubuntu release it is still somewhat poorly integrated into Lucid (Prime
example is the Ralink wireless drivers no longer working properly
because integration of the rt2870 and rt2860 have been lost. Yes, I

Darxus,
Have you tried the following, in order, exactly? Somehow, I doubt it because
this actually works.
1. In Synaptic package manager, go to Linux, select the item that just says
Linux, this will download and install the latest stable Ubuntu kernel, which
will install without reformatting
No, when I referred to 710, I was referring to the git number on the
Glasenhardt version, now unavailable, instead install
xserver-xorg-video-intel 2:2.12.0+git20100712~glasen~ppa1

IMHO, stay with the combination you have. Glasenhardt should have Git 714 built
within a few hours (either today or tomorrow) but aside from that upgrade, you
are the same as me. When I spoke of 710, I was referring to Git 710 in
Glasenhardt, which just worked really well, no
Mint Isadora (Lucid) graphics performance has been greatly improved with the
Glasenhart drivers and libdrm. However, certain GL-screensavers (for example,
Ant Inspect, Ant Maze, Atlantis) instantly bring down the system. I would like
to be able to do a backtrace on these crashes, but do not
The Glasenhart patches and Rogers Mesa patch have resulted in good

Public bug reported:
Having installed the i845 GPU fixed kernel in Bug #541492, which showed
a broken rt280sta implementation. rt2870sta is listed under lsmod, but
is improperly assigned to 0 instead of 1. Blacklisting rt2x00, and
rt2800 drivers results in no card recognition. Freeing rt2800
Installed the Glasenhart 855-drm patch (stable) and then the intel driver.
Improved overall stability and performance, but Google Earth still brought
system down, as did OpenGL screensavers with frequency. Then added Brian
Roger's Mesa fix, after which Google Earth functioned perfectly,
@dbclinton
Did you install both the 855 patch and the intel driver package (ther'e on
different repositories on Glasenhart's site)?

Yes I have the same behavior with flash-embedded photos in Firefox as well.
IIRC it goes way if the 855 experimental modules are used. Also, the GL
screensavers will still take down the system intermittently.

Let me see if I understand
We have a fixed kernel for i845 that has never successfully booted a
machine...
The Intel corporate team officially leading the fix have contributed no code
since this bug was released in January...
All the workarounds proposed involve removing fairly major areas
