[Bug 309212] [NEW] X crash: (WW) intel(0): Existing errors found in hardware state.

[Piraja]

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: xserver-xorg-video-intel

1) Ubuntu Intrepid 8.10
2) xserver-xorg-video-intel: Installed: 2:2.4.1-1ubuntu10
3) Normal X session behaviour.
4) Screen blackens out for a while, tries to "wake up" but reverts to low graphics mode then; this has happened several times in various situations, with no identical pattern of application use, etc..

I have had previous problems with the intel driver and the i845 chipset
in this desktop machine, running Ubuntu 8.10 from an external USB HDD:
see bugs 259385 & 221119. However, now I've been trying out another HDD,
detached from a broken laptop and inserted in an  external USB HDD case,
on the same Compaq Evo D51S, and this present crash behaviour is
somewhat different. Adding *Driver "intel"* to xorg.conf may have helped
a little (no longer log-in / GDM blanks), but the X session crashing
still continues.

PFA my Xorg.0.log
