** Description changed:

  System:
  HP ZBook Firefly G8 laptop, Intel Iris Xe / Tiger Lake graphics, 
Xubuntu/Ubuntu 26.04.
  
  Problem:
  The system intermittently hard-locks and requires forced power-off. The power 
LED remains on, the system becomes completely unresponsive, and previous 
crashes showed Caps Lock LED flickering/blinking. This is not a normal 
application crash or clean shutdown.
  
  Latest crash:
  On 2026-06-18 the boot ended abruptly at 10:59:06 MDT. The next boot started 
at 11:00:45 MDT. kdump was enabled and reported ready, with crashkernel memory 
reserved, but no vmcore was captured. /var/crash contained only kdump_lock and 
kexec_cmd for the hard lock. This suggests a hard hang/deadlock rather than a 
clean kernel panic.
  
  Kernel/debug configuration at time of crash:
  The system was booted with:
  zswap.enabled=1 i915.enable_psr=0 i915.enable_dc=0 i915.enable_fbc=0 
drm.debug=0x1e log_buf_len=4M
  
  XFCE compositor was already disabled. Intel OpenCL packages had been
  removed. The crash therefore appears unrelated to compositor effects or
  OpenCL workloads.
  
  Observed kernel evidence:
  The final kernel messages before logging stopped repeatedly show i915 / DRM 
atomic cursor-plane updates on the same pipe/plane:
  
  [CRTC:584:pipe D] with [PLANE:578:cursor D]
  drm_atomic_set_fb_for_plane
  intel_plane_atomic_calc_changes
  visible 1 -> 1, off 0, on 0, ms 0
  
  The same cursor D / pipe D messages repeat continuously at the final
  timestamp, 2026-06-18 10:59:06, until logging stops. No clean shutdown,
  panic, oops, or vmcore was captured.
  
  Earlier related crash evidence:
  Previous crashes also pointed at Intel i915 / DRM display handling, including 
stack traces involving:
  - i915_hotplug_work_func [i915]
  - drm_kms_helper_connector_hotplug_event
  - drm_atomic_commit
  - intel_atomic_commit
  - intel_audio_codec_disable
  
  Expected result:
  The system should remain responsive during normal desktop use.
  
  Actual result:
  The system hard-locks and requires forced power-off, risking data loss.
  
  Impact:
  High/severe. Full system lockup.
  
  Suspected area:
  Intel i915 / DRM atomic modesetting, specifically hardware cursor plane 
handling on pipe D. External display/dock involvement is possible but not fully 
proven.
  
  Next test: I will force Xorg software cursor using the modesetting
  driver option SWCursor=true. If this stops the crashes, I will update
  the bug because the final logs currently point strongly at the hardware
  cursor plane path.
+ 
+ imwheel was running because without it the mouse wheel does not work
+ correctly in QGIS on this system. It may increase scroll/input event
+ handling, but it is a user-space X11 tool and should not be able to
+ hard-lock the kernel. The final kernel logs point to i915 DRM cursor-
+ plane updates.
