I've been experiencing a recurring lockup that may or may not be this bug; what I can add to the discussion is that if it is this bug, it appears to be Linux-only. My company bought several of its developers identical laptops (Dell Latitude E6520 models). The other developers who are using these laptops are using Windows, and I'm the only one using Linux. I've been experiencing these hangups 3-4 times per week, on average, over the past year. But when I asked the other developers in my company with Latitude E6520s if they'd experienced random-seeming hangups, they all said no. Which means that either I got the only laptop with a defective chip, or else the Windows driver doesn't experience this problem.
I hope this helps in some way; sorry I can't be of more technical help, but GPUs are outside my area of expertise. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to xserver-xorg-video-intel in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1041790 Title: [snb] GPU lockup IPEHR: 0x0b160001 IPEHR: 0x0b140001, workaround i915.semaphores=0 Status in X.org xf86-video-intel: Confirmed Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Status in “xserver-xorg-video-intel” package in Ubuntu: Triaged Bug description: X locks up periodically for a 2 to ten seconds at a time and this crash log gets generated.
