I've made a kernel with the latest fix available in this PPA: https://launchpad.net/~brian-rogers/+archive/graphics-fixes-testing
If it gets good feedback, I'll copy it to my regular graphics-fixes PPA. This kernel is based on Natty's 2.6.37 kernel, has the changes in drm- intel-next applied, and the patch at https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=27187#c291 is added. I've produced builds for Lucid, Maverick, and Natty. It has a cache coherency checker, so you'll see periodic messages in dmesg reporting on the number of flushes and whether any problems are detected. >From Daniel Vetter's patch description: > Poke HIC bit + wbinv + cache coherency checker > > Chris Wilson's latest patch with my cache coherency checker added. Spills the > number of chipset flushes regurlarly into the dmesg and bails loudly if one > fails. > > Tested-by lines (like for the previous patch attempts by me) highly welcome.
