I think the problem is that when Julien looked at this bug report, it wasn't clear which kernel version is the one that provides the fix so that the Debian folk can investigate whether they can issue that kernel for Squeeze. > ** Description changed: > > [Status] > Fixed in maverick > Not fixed in lucid (bug still seen on 2010-09-22 with kernel 2.6.32-25) Debian Squeeze is still running the 2.6.32-5-amd64 kernel, Maverick is running 2.6.35-22. Does anyone know which changeset to which kernel series actually cures the problem? Do we even know whether this is a 2.6.32, 2.6.33, 2.6.34 or 2.6.35 issue? > [Workaround] > As workaround add the option i915.powersave=0 to the kernel command line in > the grub config (for GRUB 2: edit /etc/default/grub and add i915.powersave=0 > to GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX, then run sudo update-grub; for GRUB 1: edit > /boot/grub/menu.lst and add i915.powersave=0 to the end of the line beginning > with # kopt=, then run sudo update-grub). > > [Alternative workaround for experts] > - Compile your kernel with Andy Whitcroft's patch from > http://people.canonical.com/~apw/lp538648-lucid/ (see comment #88). > + Compile your kernel with Andy Whitcroft's patch from > http://people.canonical.com/~apw/lp538648-lucid/ (see comment #92). I am not sure this is an option for the Debian folk, they need to run a kernel from the official series.
