Bug#620480: I'm having random freezes on a GM965

[Jaime Alberto Silva <jaime@sgautomatizacion.com>]

I upgraded the video driver to the unstable version and the issue
seems to be gone. If it happens again I'll report it upstream.

jaime@inspironjaime2:~$ apt-cache policy xserver-xorg-video-intel
xserver-xorg-video-intel:

I'm sorry I forgot to report it.

Thanks.
