OK - that makes some sense to me.  In that case, could this bug be
mentioned in the release notes with instructions on switching to i810
for those who experience an intolerable number of crashes?  I believe
OpenSUSE had such a note in their 10.3 release notes and shipped both
drivers with -intel as default, as Ubuntu will be doing.

Also, is it possible to alter the gdm/kdm configuration to not reset the
X-server on logout?  This would make the issue occur far less in general
use (it would be basically relegated to those who suspend-to-RAM often
at that point).  For me, the driver works fine unless the X-server is
reset, at which point I get the crashes one out of every few times.

Sorry if I sounded harsh at times regarding shipping with this bug - I'm
just afraid of users installing Gutsy and having a heavily crash-prone
system...
