Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: xserver-xorg-video-intel
When using unity or a Ubuntu classic session with compiz, there are
spurious [drm:i915_hangcheck_ring_idle] *ERROR* Hangcheck timer
elapsed... blt ring idle [waiting on 9004, at 9004], missed IRQ? visible
in dmesg. The display stops updating for a fraction of a second when it
happens. This can be forcibly reproduced by doing vblank_mode=0 glxgears
with compiz active and it is specific to sandybridge systems. Disabling
sync to vblank in compiz doesn't have any effect, and the problem does
not happen when using metacity.
The hangcheck messages are gone in 2.6.39-rc3 kernel, but the root
problem still remains in that the display updates erratically when it
happens.
