It seems that this bug still persists for me. I got an X-server "hiccup" once again and lost an X for this boot session. So I have to compose this from the emacs-nox.
uname: Linux 2.6.32-24-generic #41-Ubuntu SMP Thu Aug 19 01:38:40 UTC 2010 x86_64 GNU/Linux I am pretty sure that I disabled the power manager. When I had this crash last time on a recent maverick kernel (happened only once for me) I saw the power-manager enabled somehow. With maverick kernels I tended to have longer uptaime (10-15 days) uptime : 22:42:08 up 3 days, 12:52, 2 users, load average: 0.19, 0.33, 0.69 This time I was running stellarium which is pretty CPU intensive. It is a pretty annoying bug suffered by most i915 based chips. Does anyone know if there is "any light in the end of the tunnel"? In turn, I will get an updated maverick kernel to keep testing it. -- Please do not send me Microsoft Office/Apple iWork documents.
