I'm seeing the issue of hung GPU, after which a lot of applications (in
particular urxvt) become very messed up. Restarting X does not help for me.

Hello Steinar, can you tell us what's your chipset?
I ask you because, reading from debian-x ml seems that people with
chipset like i830, i845 keep on seeing this kind of problem.
I have an i855 and i'm here to say to the Debian X strike force and to
the debian kernel team that the combination of 2.6.32-24 (and above) and
2.12.0+shadow-2 is a great improvement for me: after about a week of
hour and hour of work with this x driver and 2.6.35-rc6 i haven't seen
an hang or a video problem (i scaramantically touch iron saying this).
I've also noted on debian-x that complains about i855 seems to have
fallen down and many bugs were closed, isn't it?
I can reproduce it 100% reliably by trying to play
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IrwjatDnLKY in Google Chrome with HTML5
enabled.
I can reproduce this video without problem, also going fullscreen (in
the past week this operation caused me freeze or X restarting itself).
It'd be nice to know how it goes with 2.13.0-1 (just uploaded to
experimental, so available in a few hours).
I'm waiting to try. It's not on my mirror yet.
Ciao.
Cesare.
