Hi, I've also seen lockups in the intel DRI driver since about 1-2 weeks. The responsible upgrade might have been some time before that since I (didn't use to) reboot daily but use suspend.
I first thought it were 2.6.29 to blame, but I've now had comparable lockups with 2.6.26, so that is ruled out. Today, the lockup occured when switching to a tab in epiphany that had an embedded gnome-mplayer (i.e. xvideo). I believe I can relate other crashes to xv as well. Today it was just a plain lockup, with an completely unusable X server, not doing any screen refresh (I believe sometimes the mouse still worked, not sure about today). I then used SysRq+K to kill the processed on the current terminal, which caused GDM to restart the X server to recover. In other situations I've had to reboot, and I can also remember the keyboard LEDs flashing (which indicates a kernel panic). Anyway, my Xorg.0.old log file shows: exaCopyDirty: Pending damage region empty!

Server aborting [... Unloading modules ...] (II) AIGLX: Suspending AIGLX clients for VT switch The last line sounds like a bad idea, since one of the unloading lines before read (II) Video Bus: Close I will install libdrm-intel1-dbg now, so maybe I'll be able to provide a more detailed backtrace sometime. Of course I can't tell whether the segfault in above logfile was before I had pressed SysRq+K or triggered by that. However I had the impression that Xv triggered the crash, and indeed the backtrace contains ProcXvDispatch and XvdiPutImage Note that I have some packages from experimental installed, so my system is not a plain "sid". best regards, Erich Schubert -- erich@(vitavonni.de|debian.org) -- GPG Key ID: 4B3A135C (o_ You know we all became mathematicians for the same reason: //\ we were lazy. --- Max Rosenlicht V_/_ Die Mathematik muss man schon deswegen studieren, weil sie die Gedanken ordnet. --- Michail Wassiljewitsch Lomonossow -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
