Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: xserver-xorg-core
System: Ubuntu Gutsy (latest as of 16/7/07), Dell Inspiron 510m, 855GM graphics.
I have detailed the problem extensively upstream, so I'll post a summary
here:
I have discovered that the patch
"120_fedora_disable_offscreen_pixmaps.diff" causes a system freeze when
using a combination of the Intel driver with EXA enabled (XAA is fine)
and compiz. It has been reproduced on two of my systems using 855GM and
865G respectively).
I recompiled xserver-xorg-core with the aforementioned patch disabled,
and all is well. I would appreciate if the Ubuntu Xorg maintainers could
revise this patch or drop it entirely. Everything is detailed upstream,
which I will tag here.
