[i855] Xserver freezing on Toshiba Satellite A10
Further tests:
I installed the xorg.conf file from https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/447892,
comment 41, so as to see what happens if I use the VESA driver.
Without the addition of acpi=off to Grub, the laptop hangs at a blank
screen with a cursor once it's got past the initial XFCE mouse screen.
Installed mainline kernel v2.6.32-rc7, dated 13 November. The machine
locked up as usual, but with one difference: I could use cntrl-alt-F2 to
access tty2. Running TOP showed nothing unusual. I tried restarting gdm
but it did no good. On reboot it hung at loading modem drivers or
similar wording.
A couple of more things I would like you to test in order to narrow this down
(when booting without acpi=off)
- Could you try to disable desktop effects and see if you stil have freezes
- If you start the computer and leave it at the login screen, does it still
hang, or do you have to log in
I'd like to clarify a couple of things, if I may.
I think that desktop effects are already turned off. I'm not that
familiar with Xubuntu, and I'm just running with the default settings.
The compositor is turned off in the Window Manager Tweaks application.
Is there something else I need to do as
That appears to have fixed the freezing. I used the system for over 3
hours, mainly web browsing. Previously, the limit was one hour, maximum,
and often a lot less.
However, two odd things happened. Firstly, that the screen suddenly went
blank for no apparent reason. Moving the mouse did not
I found a fix for the shutdown problem here:

It may take a while before I know if that's caused any other problems.

Irihapeti, in bug 447892 comment 23 it was suggested to use xorg-edgers
with the option DebugFlushCaches. Could you use that for your
batchbuffer dump, since it will most likely make it easier for the
developers to make sense of it.
Also, except for the batchbuffer dump, we prefer to have files
@Geir Ove Myhr:
Sorry if this is a stupid question, but there appear to be links to two
versions of xorg-edgers attached to that message. Which one do I use?

Sorry, I thought the link to xorg-edgers was more visible in that bug
report. The right one is https://launchpad.net/~xorg-edgers/+archive/ppa
(in comment 9). The other links are to other things.

Ahh, I was thinking I had to download stuff from git and compile it!! A
ppa sounds much easier for me to handle.
So, if I understand correctly, I need to install the .deb from the ppa,
create an xorg.conf file with:
Section Device
Identifier my-old-i8xx
Driver intel
Option
Have I got that right?
Almost...
So, if I understand correctly, I need to install the .deb from the
ppa,
The xorg-edgers is made so that the packages depend on each other in
the right way. So while it may work to only install the
xserver-xorg-video-intel .deb from the ppa, it may happen that
Thanks. It goes to show that it pays to ask for clarification, even if I
risk looking like an idiot :) As you might have guessed, I'm new to bug
reporting.

Thank you for the new files. At bug 476817 which is similar to this
(855GM freeze bug) it is reported that adding acpi=off to the kernel
command line avoids the freezes. Could you check if this is the case for
you as well? To edit the kernel command line, press Esc on boot the show
