Karmic RC does not hang on Thinkpad R31 i830 or ThinkCentre A30 i845.
Xorg is 2.9.0 and kernel is 2.6.31-14.
Problem solved for me at the moment, now for the next update
Thanks much, Jerry
p.s. It's another problem, i830 pretty slow on GtkPerf:
Karmic takes 63.13 seconds vs. Intrepid 36.04
Karmic should have the patch mentioned upstream. Marking this Fix
Released for the kernel.

As of update of today evening (ubuntu beta)
- xserver-xorg-video-int 2:2.9.0-1ubuntu1
- kernel 2.6.31-13-generic
- i830M Chipset (Thinkpad R31)
and using an empty xorg.conf the system boots now without problems into
the graphical user interface.
Using i915.modset=0 does not deliver kernel

[i830] xorg hang on i830 video driver
After a day trying again, the PC locks up again with black screen before
login like Timothy wrote.
I tried booting with the i915.modset=0 kernel parameter and the system
went through the login screnn, even from the live cd. The only strange
thing ist that the boot process stats Unknown boot
I am still having issues, more severe issues. PC locks before login
screen. I can't even SSH in to get a batch bufferdump. I upgraded from
Jaunty to karmic alpha 6. I am going to try a fresh install next.

Hi,
i like to add, that running Alpha 6 as of today (18/9/2009) is running
fine on my Thinkpad R31/i830. This is without (!) nomodset. I have no
problems with hanging mouse cursor, total system hang or else any more
but, top gives me:
Tasks: 142 total, 3 running, 139 sleeping, 0 stopped,
Hi,
now I tested deaktivating my Xorg.conf !!!
I got a better result: CPU is only about 80-90% CPU usage (intel PIII
1 GHz) when starting e.g. firefox. It goes down to appr. 15% in normal
usage after appr. half a minute. That is not acceptable - but system
works ;)
All in all performance is
Not a fix but at least karmic A4 boots at all on i830! This is using
2.6.31-6. A3 never did boot on i830, kept up to date in recovery mode.
I've been using A2 or intrepid. Intrepid is faster than karmic on all
of my four pc's on video graphics benchmark GtkPerf from Synaptic.
On A4:
This launchpad bug is still very much there exactly as described with
the A4 default driver xserver-xorg-video-intel 2:2.8.0-0ubuntu2 which
doesn't work on this Thinkpad i830, even with nomodeset in the grub boot
linux line. The last karmic that would run with 2:2.8.0 plus PPKA is
A2.

Timothy and vmc, we don't need any more dumps for this issue. If it
turns out that you have the same issue, the fix for this bug will also
fix your problem and I would encourage you to follow this and the
upstream bug report and test once a fix becomes available.

I also have the same issue. I have Intel i865 chip. Mine freezes so
right now I can't get the dump to work. Once I can I will attach the

Attached is the batchbuffer dump as requested taken after the hang using
ssh.
It's a bit of a bear to ssh since as hung, the mouse pointer has to be
moved after every keystroke or copy in order to get any response.
Let me know if there's a problem with the dump and it needs to be re-
done.
Bryce, thanks for the dump directions.

Jerry, I've forwarded your bug upstream to
https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=22982 - please subscribe to
this bug in case upstream needs further information or wishes you to
test something.
I'm focusing this bug report only on the i830 issue so as not to
complicate investigation.
Also, please obtain a gpu batchbuffer dump after reproducing the hang.
Directions on how to do this are available at:
