Package: xserver-xorg
Version: 1:7.3+3
Severity: normal
I've got a laptop with the following display:
00:02.1 Display controller: Intel Corporation Mobile 915GM/GMS/910GML Express
Graphics Controller (rev 03)
Occasionally, when shutting down X11 or when switch to a virtual
terminal (i.e., Ctrl-Alt-F1), my screen goes mostly black (with
several light gray boxes), and the whole system locks up. Once it's
locked up, I can't do anything other than force a power down. I've
tried Ctrl-Alt-Del, Ctrl-Alt-Backspace, Ctrl-Alt-F1. The LEDs down
change when I press Caps lock. I haven't SysRq Raising
Elephants... because the laptop keyboard makes it hard.
The problem seems to occur more frequently when the machine has been
booted for longer periods of time.
