Hello All,

Recently we got a machine with Intel 82865G chipset for the graphics.
Here is the relevant lspci output:

0000:00:02.0 VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation 82865G Integrated Graphics Controller (rev 02) (prog-if 00 [VGA])
        Subsystem: Intel Corporation: Unknown device 0c4a
        Flags: bus master, fast devsel, latency 0, IRQ 177
        Memory at f0000000 (32-bit, prefetchable) [size=128M]
        Memory at ffa80000 (32-bit, non-prefetchable) [size=512K]
        I/O ports at ec00 [size=8]
        Capabilities: <available only to root>

Ubuntu dapper installs nicely; sound, X, networking worked fine without
any problem. The problem starts when I try to play a mpg/avi file or
play any 3d games/apps (ppracer, stellarium, torcs) or even try
glxgears. The displays blanks out and the key locks up. The machine
hangs and I have to do a hard reset. Searching the forums did not give
any answers. Has anyone faced a similar problem and found a solution?
Any pointers/heklp would be helpfu.

Regards,
