[Bug 411704] [NEW] intermittent system crashes supposedly caused by intel xorg driver

[okubax]

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: xserver-xorg-video-intel

Started about a week ago and now, it's really becoming a "pain in my
ass". My Ubuntu Jaunty system now crashes/hangs/soft-freezes(whatever)
more than 6 times daily. First I thought it was becuause of the new
intel driver that I installed after following some steps mentioned on
Ubuntu Forums, after which Ireverted back to the original Ubuntu Jaunty
intel driver and then the nightmare really started. No matter what I am
doing, the system always crashes even when it is idle !. So I thought it
was time to look at my system logs to see what the hell was going on. I
found out that the evry time that my system crashes, it always logs an
error about this: "drm:i915_getparam". Guess it had something to do with
intel drivers
