Since upgrading to kernel 2.6.38, I've been experiencing freezes
in X. After startup, things are normal for a matter of minutes;
then most keypresses and mouseclicks have no effect until focus
is moved to another window, at which time the screen "catches up."
Once it starts it continues until X is re-started.
Starting X with fvwm's ClickToFocus (rather than SloppyFocus or
FocusFollowsMouse) seems to work longer but eventually fails.
The problem does not occur when running a 2.6.37 kernel.
I'm running sid on an Asus S62E laptop with the following packages:
xorg 1:7.6+6
xserver-xorg 1:7.6+6
xserver-xorg-core 2:1.10.1-2
xserver-xorg-input-evdev 1:2.6.0-2+b1
xserver-xorg-input-kbd 1:1.6.0-1+b1
xserver-xorg-input-mouse 1:1.7.0-2+b1
xserver-xorg-input-synaptics 1.4.0-1+b1
xserver-xorg-video-intel 2:2.15.0-2
Same results with wheezy and:
xorg 1:7.5+8
xserver-xorg 1:7.5+8
xserver-xorg-core 2:1.7.7-13
xserver-xorg-input-evdev 1:2.3.2-6
xserver-xorg-input-kbd 1:1.4.0-2
xserver-xorg-input-mouse 1:1.5.0-2
xserver-xorg-input-synaptics 1.2.2-2
xserver-xorg-video-intel 2:2.13.0-6
Starting X and then running fvwm and applications on a remote
(squeeze) machine has the same problem, so it appears to be an
issue with the X server and the 2.6.38 kernel.
Anyone else experiencing this? Suggestions?
Thanks.. Bill
