HI, On my laptop (an Asus A3N with 855GM), last time I tried to install Karmic, I've this problem of freeze (just after boot, sometimes with kdm, sometimes in the few seconds of kde). I've downgraded to an old release (8.10), no problem.
If you need people with Intel 855GM to make some tests, I'm ready. Just contact me.. Thank you for yor great job.

From the comments it seems that many of the people who think they are affected by this bug actually have a different problem which has the same symptoms (this is explained with better words than mine in comment #22 in the upstream report). Specifically, the comments mention 945G, 845G and 855GM chipsets, while this bug report (by zwaldowski) is from the 965GM chipset. As far as I can see, the 965GM freezes are now fixed, and I will therefore close this bug report. We do still have problems on 945G, 845G and 855GM. I don't think it is realistic to get those fixed in Karmic, but I do hope we can get them fixed in time for Lucid. For this we can use some help in testing. Currently, it is the 945 chipset bugs that we know least about. On 845G and 855GM we have had people doing some good testing and we are closer to finding the root of the problems. For those of you on 945G/945GM/945GME, please see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/X/Lucidi945Freezes. There are links to bugs on these chipsets on that page.

Status in X.org xf86-video-intel: Fix Released Status in “xserver-xorg-video-intel” package in Ubuntu: Fix Released Bug description: More or less as the title says, I am experiencing an issue with Jaunty. Under all releases since 3 Apr, my system (specs below) will randomly freeze up, with the mouse only working and the rest of the system not respond. I must use the REISUB trick to reboot, and cannot switch to a terminal. With "DontZap" disabled, neither the old shortcut (Ctrl+Alt+Backspace) nor the new one (Magic SysRq+K). My computer is an HP dv6654us with an Intel GMA X3100 (GM965 chipset) running Ubuntu Jaunty, fully updated. The OS is in a dual boot with Windows 7 x64, however, this issue has also occurred (many times, I might add) while running a LiveCD. The system has proposed repositories enabled (to no help). It has also had Xorg 2.7.1 from the Xorg-updates PPA (to no help) and Xorg Git from the Xorg-edgers PPA (to no help as of 15 May). No hardware has changed since the last time I installed Ubuntu, or when I previously had an Intrepid install in the same OS configuration. Further investigation shows that this may be a duplicate of bug 359392, but I'll keep this open so as to assauge the guys running that bug.
