Hi John,
I updated my Fedora 11 laptop (an old Thinkpad R50e, Pentium-M, w/
intel 855G integrated graphics), latest Fedora kernel 2.6.30.8-64 and
Well, having i855 here too, and frankly, xorg-x11-drv-intel+libdrm+kernel
combination at F-11 was really horrible one. Upgrading to Rawhide seems to
fixed it. I don't see any crash/hang for a some time.
I still have the Xv video acceleration locking up the entire machine
as soon as I start a video playback.
Well, Xv's still now working at all when KMS is enabled (and when is
disabled the whole system hangs at start :).
But there's patch
http://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=20901
you might wanna test it -- looked good.
I dug a bit actually and I'm not
sure anymore if it's the kernel or the intel xorg driver which is
causing this issue (I'd say the former).
Indeed. Perhaps you may try to rebuild Rawhide kernel for F-11 and
test it? (Not that I knew what happens when you do so.)
I'm pretty sure about the
lockup though. I'm going to try gather more information and then may
be report a bug on
bugzilla.redhat.com.
