[Bug 339433] Re: X Server Crashes / intel video card 4500MHD on Sony Vaio laptop

[Geir Ove Myhr]

cdir, I think the first thing I would do is to check the newest jaunty
release (http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/releases/9.04/ - alpha6 is currently
the latest version). The GM45 graphics chipset is pretty new, and there
has been a number of bugs for this chipset that have been corrected in
the driver in Jaunty (currently 2.6.3).

If the problem is still there in Jaunty, I would test the drivers in
https://launchpad.net/~xorg-edgers/+archive/ppa, and if it is still a
problem, report the bug to the upstream developers.

You can test Jaunty by either using a LiveCD or installing it on your
computer. Since Intrepid doesn't seem to serve you very well, you may
benefit from installing Jaunty even though it is not completely finished
yet. I have it on my laptop and the only inconveniences are that there
is a ton of upgrades almost every day (takes a decent internet
connection) and that these upgrades may change the desktop experience on
a daily basis as well.
