[Bug 528981] Re: Repetitive massive filesystem corruption

[Scott Testerman]

I would like to report that I've been using the Ubuntu kernel
2.6.34-52.1 from Brian Rogers's PPA located at

https://launchpad.net/~brian-rogers/+archive/graphics-fixes

with considerable success.  For those who use an i852/855 chipset and
are having problems with the Intel graphics, in addition to the
filesystem corruption problem, this is worth a try.

Although the updated kernel is not 100% stable, the increase in
stability over even the mainline 2.6.34 kernel is quite welcome.  Now
not only are video-related crashes much less frequent for me, but when
the system does crash, I don't lose the entire filesystem.

Instructions for installing are at the above link, with the usual caveat
that this method is completely and utterly unsupported by Ubuntu,
Canonical, and probably even Brian Rogers, so beware that using the PPA
kernel could result in your entire system turning into a block of semi-
sentient Swiss cheese and walking away to take a Carnival cruise.
