 AFAIK, gutsy is as stable as the latest git versions of libGL (and
/usr/lib/dri/i965_dri.so), libdrm, kernel-side drm.

 Also AFAIK, the fix for the graphics lockups could be in any of those
pieces of software.

  When I say "as stable", I don't mean perfectly stable.  e.g. ut2004-demo
locks up my g965 quite easily.  So does SPECviewperf 9.0.3's tcvis.  It is
better than e.g. Edgy, where even some screensavers could lock it up.
