[Bug 665097] Re: X doesn't work with i915 driver

[Andrew Kornilov]

I've been googling/reading lots of information, found similar problems,
then discovered kernel OOPS with intel_ips module:

Then i added blacklist intel_ips to the local modprobe config and problem has been solved.
Actually, it's a workaround rather then solution.

Shall i post here harware info, logs, etc?
