I'm going to dupe this against the master bug report for i855 freezing
issues, and follow up on the periodic freezing issue there.

Googling revealed a thread that looks relevant to me:

One even mentions the 10 secs interval between each "hanging".

is invisible, then try linux-image-2.6.35-ppa20+v9+cursorfix-generic.
@Brian Rogers: I tried the last kernel from your ppa
(2.6.35rc4-v9patch1.e467e10) on another laptop with 855, and X wouldn't
start unless "nomodeset" was used.
Could you please reupload 2.6.34rc3-51-generic because that works for
me, but I didn't keep the .deb? Thank you!

Unfortunatelly, I have to report multpiple freezes in the last couple of
weeks. If it's any help, I'll gladly send some logs the next time it
happens.

I can confirm that on my Asus M3N (8086:3584, 82852/855GM) Lucid works
with Brian's 2.6.34rc7-51 and modesetting turned on.
CPU usage seems OK, but I noticed that video in mplayer is a bit
glitchy.
On Karmic, I used a kernel from bug #447892 without modesetting.

For anyone on Lucid, I have uploaded a version of Lucid's libdrm to my

No, did not try that, because I had to use nomodeset before to get this to work
(with the vesa driver).
But will try again, with nomodeset tomorrow.

Have you tried those versions along with also booting with 'nomodeset'
in the kernel options? Otherwise that version of the driver probably
won't do the right thing.

Willem, I see that you tested a lot of options in xorg.conf in comment #2 and
nothing stopped the freezes. Could you also try
Option "Tiling" "false"
in the Device section? Most likely it won't make a difference, but if it does I
think that is good news.

On bug 447892 comment 23 it is described how to get potentially better

I've also tried acpi=off and it fixes the freezing problem... But just

I don't use desktop effects for testing, but Google Earth. If 3D is

So the kernel option acpi=off will actually get you a working (not

tomorrow)

the same behavior here with a intel 855GM graphic chip and the karmic
release. Only booting with "acpi=off" option helps so that X is not
freezing anymore, the boot option "nomodeset" does not change anything,
X will still freeze after a while.
