Olie, try it with KMS enabled and any AccelMethod setting in xorg.conf deleted. It's possible it won't freeze with that setup.
If it still freezes, also try installing this version: https://launchpad.net/~brian-rogers/+archive/graphics- testing/+build/1437394/+files/xserver-xorg-video- intel_2.7.99.902+git20090720.bb300738-0ubuntu1+karmic_i386.deb That build has had more confirmation of stability (with i845, at least) than the newer version did, so if i855 is still unstable with that, it's probably an independent bug. -- [i855GM] Freeze shortly after X startup on Intel i855 https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/447892 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is the registrant for xf86-video-intel. _______________________________________________ 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
