Great! I'd like to send it upstream to the intel developers now and see if they can get some useful information out of the batchbuffer dump. I just wonder, which kernel exactly do you mean by 2.6.33-999? Is it from the drm-intel git tree, from Linus' git tree, from [1], or somewhere else? The

The kernel source that I used was not from the drm-intel tree, it was the mainline [1]. The exact source package that I downloaded was: linux-source-2.6.33_2.6.33-999.201002211003_all.deb I then applied the batch buffer dump v8 patch [2]. It would probably make it easier for the Intel

I have patched kernel 2.6.33-999 with the batch buffer dump v8 patch [1] and compiled everything. This has been installed, rebooted, and the new kernel version confirmed. I have captured the batch buffer dump after the crash/freeze and attached it here. uname -a Linux ubuntu

Installed xorg-edgers PPA [1] and did: aptitude update, aptitude upgrade, reboot After logging in and starting to pull down menus, I no longer get a freeze, but Xorg crashes and I am left with a black screen with a mouse pointer that I can move about, but I am now able to switch VT (Ctrl-Alt-F2)

Installed mainline kernels [1] 2.6.33-020633rc4 and 2.6.33-999. In both cases I got a freeze after logging in and pulling down menus. The mouse pointer still moves, and I can switch VT using Ctrl-Alt-F2 to get a console. [1]: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelTeam/MainlineBuilds ** Attachment

Thank you. Forget about the batchbuffer dump for now, since they contain no information on kernel 2.6.32. There is an experimental kernel patch upstream that will record information again (which applies fine to 2.6.33-rc8 at least) [1]. If you're comfortable with patching and building a kernel,
