I've been testing with Xubuntu, ubuntu kernel version 2.6.32-11 libdrm2 version 2.4.17+git20100120 xserver-xorg-video-intel version 2:2.10.0+git20100120
The first test was after installing xubuntu-desktop metapackage, but leaving all my other stuff installed. Uptime was 6.5 hours with no freezes. I even turned on Xubuntu's window compositor to see if that would make a difference, and nothing happened. Not being sure that something I'd previously installed was affecting the results, I did a fresh install of Xubuntu and ran another test. Same result. Uptime of nearly 4.5 hours, including some use of the window compositor, and no freeze. I am noticing some visual artifacts: occasional streaking (white background with pixellated colour) and bits being left out of type. I've attached a small screenshot of the latter. Interestingly, the letter affected varies from instance to instance, but when it happens, the same letter is affected universally throughout the page. Often, a screen refresh or scrolling up and down will fix it. I think that the xorg-edgers drivers may be heavier on RAM than the standard ones. ** Attachment added: "visual artifacts with xorg-edgers drivers" http://launchpadlibrarian.net/38354447/Screenshot-type.png -- [i855] Xserver freezing on Toshiba Satellite A10 (Intel 82852/855GM) https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/477256 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to xserver-xorg-video-intel in ubuntu. _______________________________________________ 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
