Bug#575965: xserver-xorg-video-intel: Random complete freezes of whole system



> X freezes are usually just important, adjusting.

I think this makes X completely unusable, but whatever, I am not the boss. =)

The testing/squeeze version certainly has the same problems: I downgraded from 
that version earlier back to 2.9.0 because of that, but mistakenly upgraded 
later and now I do not have 2.9.0 anywhere any more (besides I think 2.9.0 
needs an older X core as well etc).

I could give a try to 2:2.10.903-1 from experimental, though...

Unless you tell me that the iwlagn-memory-reservation-bug is also backporter 
into .32-4, I will not. That was as annoying as this. (See 
https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=14141 for details.) On a second 
thought... that caused no data loss, this does... I will upgrade to the latest 
.33 first (along with that 2.10.903).

Cheers,
Juha
