I can also confirm that the ppa kernel works for me in Lucid, while
without it I can't boot my old laptop.
My card is:
00:02.0 VGA compatible controller [0300]: Intel Corporation 82852/855GM
Integrated Graphics Device [8086:3582] (rev 02)
2.6.32-20.30 = Last one that boots, crashes with Xv
With 2.6.34rc3-51 my system no longer deadlocks when playing video
(855GM, forced KMS makes the system boot with standard Lucid kernel, as
described in bug #511001). I'll leave the computer on for a few days to
see if the hangs I describe in bug #511001 are also gone.

Have any of you who have been trying 2.6.34rc3-51 experienced Xorg using
abnormally much CPU time? With an idle (KDE) desktop, it seems to be
consuming 10-30 times more CPU than with 2.6.32-22. It's hard to get an
accurate measurement, but it's certainly qualitatively enough for my
laptop's CPU
Hi Brian,
Thanks, your kernel version 2.6.34rc3-51-generic (51.2) works on my
notebook with an 855gm and a Celeron CPU (it's an old notebook :^) It
complains at boot time of corrupted low memory, but the graphics are
back to what I had in Karmic, 1280x768. I hope there's some way to get
this
Hi Brian,
Well at 16-04-2010 the standard Lucid still crashed. Well it reverted to low
graphics mode.
Using your ppa, with the new kernel makes it work fine, I don't know if that
can be of any help for the Lucid release... Maybe 10.4.1?

[i855] [i855] [karmic] X freezes with intel 855GM
Hi Brian,
Just now moved to lucid. And I can confirm that this fix works.
With normal lucid, I was thrown to low graphics mode each time.
The new kernel seems to work fine.

FYI, the fix I was referring to in the earlier comment has since been
included in Lucid and therefore I removed the package from my PPA. The
kernel in there is a new, different fix from an upstream bug report:

Glad to hear it helps.
Anyway, a
There are potential fixes for this in the upstream development version. I
uploaded it for Lucid to the following PPA:

I can't simply upload this version for Karmic because it requires new
versions of support libraries, but I can backport
@geomar:
The freezes mentioned here are related to the Intel video driver in combination
with the X version.
If you experience other freezes please open a separate bug report.
The fixes you mention in #31 do not help with the freeze reported in this bug
report.

It seems that at least also the applications conky and root-tail made my X
freeze. I used them and my X froze again, although I had splash and quiet
turned off.
Now I don´t use conky and root-tail any more and everything is fine again.
greetings

[i855] [i855] [karmic] X freezes with intel
Hi,
I just switched off quiet and splash. So my grub looks like
# If you change this file, run 'update-grub' afterwards to update
# /boot/grub/grub.cfg.
GRUB_DEFAULT=0
GRUB_HIDDEN_TIMEOUT=10
GRUB_HIDDEN_TIMEOUT_QUIET=true
GRUB_TIMEOUT=10
GRUB_DISTRIBUTOR=`lsb_release -i -s 2 /dev/null || echo
oh yes, and I changed
GRUB_HIDDEN_TIMEOUT=0
to
GRUB_HIDDEN_TIMEOUT=10
bye
