[Bug 398594] Re: [g45] X crash playing video on GM45

[Bryce Harrington]

Heya Bruce,

I'm not sure either why libdrm-intel1-dbg did not show the first four
symbols; perhaps try libdrm2-dbg as well.

I965DisplayVideoTextured sounds like it is a crash occurring with compiz
on, is that correct?

The version of -intel in Karmic has a ton of bug fixes over the version
in Jaunty (the dev team was doing major rearchitecting in Jaunty, moving
large chunks of X into the kernel).  We have some backports of the newer
drivers in the x-updates PPA:

   https://edge.launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat/+archive/x-updates/

and even newer versions in the xorg-edgers PPA:

   https://edge.launchpad.net/~xorg-edgers/+archive/ppa

If either of those work, probably no need to test against karmic.  If
they do not solve it, you could also try a newer kernel.  From our
testing, the -intel 2.6.99 + kernel 2.6.31 seems to be the killer combo
and has resolved a ton of problems on -intel.  If you want to install
the full Karmic on your machine, note that Alpha-2 has been found to be
reasonably stable (particularly for -intel users who are having problems
in Jaunty).

** Changed in: xserver-xorg-video-intel (Ubuntu)
       Status: New => Incomplete
