Ah, ok that makes more sense. I think what might be going on here is two separate bugs. GPU lockup bugs generally involve the whole system locking up, however we have a known problem where the lockup handler sometimes has false-positives for some reason we haven't figured out. I think the crash popups you're seeing are these false positive type bugs.
The slowdown is probably a second unrelated problem. Might not even be X causing it. As we have plenty of bug reports about the false gpu lockups, I think this bug report should focus on the slowdown issue instead; sounds like that's what you care about. ** Changed in: xserver-xorg-video-intel (Ubuntu) Status: Incomplete => New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to xserver-xorg-video-intel in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/826504 Title: [i945gm] GPU lockup EIR: 0x00000010 PGTBL_ER: 0x00000100 render.IPEHR: 0x01000000 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xserver-xorg-video-intel/+bug/826504/+subscriptions _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat Post to : ubuntu-x-swat@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
