I backported the patch from upstream that they believe will resolve this issue. It might be too late to include this in natty, however if people test it quickly and if it is found to eliminate the freezes on i915 maybe there's a chance.
My backport patch is available in my PPA here: https://launchpad.net/~bryce/+archive/fig If you test it and find it resolves the issue sufficiently let me know. ** Changed in: xserver-xorg-video-intel (Ubuntu) Status: Triaged => Incomplete -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/755693 Title: [i915gm] GPU lockup (ESR: 0x00000001 IPEHR: 0x7f9c000c) -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
