I can't say for sure this is what is causing my X to hang.. but I do see
the same error.

If this is what is causing my X to hang..  it seems to happen when I launch 
something from the panel.  When I click on an icon to launch an application, I 
get an orange'ish line vertically up and down the whole left side of my screen 
(external screen).  When it hangs, that line often stays there..  and I have to 
switch to a console and kill X to get my computer back.

It is getting bad.. I lose everything I was doing.. and it happens quite
often.

I'm on Ubuntu 9.04
Linux degrofft61 2.6.28-15-generic #48-Ubuntu SMP Wed Jul 29 08:54:56 UTC 2009 
i686 GNU/Linux
00:02.0 VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation Mobile GM965/GL960 
Integrated Graphics Controller (rev 0c)
xserver-xorg-video-intel                   2:2.7.1-0ubuntu1~xup~1

It also seems to happen more often than note when I launch Lotus Notes,
Rational Application Developer, or tn5250j.  I don't know that is
related.. but that is when I seem to hit this.

I don't use compiz,
