I don't seem to have the problems as el_smurfo mentioned with my Dell D400. I've been spoiled as this is the first real issue I've had to deal with since I got the machine a few years back.
I applied the patch to my system and it is stable and usable for me. I don't have desktop effects and cannot use the new Unity environment (screen flickers when I hover over the launcher icons on the left side) but I am not dead-in-the-water either. I outlined what I did in the following thread, post #78 => http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1472054&page=8 Frustrating? Hell Yes! End of the world? Hell No. -- MASTER: [i855] GPU lockup (apport-crash) https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/541511 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
