What I stated about X might be my perception, so I wouldn't say it happens quickly in X. It also requires touchpad usage, but not so intense as in console mode. i8kmon service is needed in both X and console to trigger the issue (i8kmon loads the module during start if it's not loaded and it doesn't unload it after being stopped). Answering to your question, if I stop the service and the module is loaded I can't reproduce the issue no matter how fast I use the touchpad during an X session. I thought I was wrong when I booted in console mode with no X process running because it was really hard to make the error happen. I'd say i8k module and i8kmon service have something that triggers the issue with my hardware. > > [...] >> I'm also trying with etch and a half linux 2.6 kernel.
