Bug#515148: Regression of usability with latest linux kernel on sid



With 2.6.37-2 linux kernel (sid), when X crashes (every day after 1
hours, maybe less, it takes longer if I use only tvtime without
pidgin/iceweasel/icedove), the screen go black, my cursor pointer freeze
(if I have an arrow, it will stick to the arrow), but I can continue to
work. tvtime doesn't work anymore but I can surf and work with vim,
gimp, iceweasel, etc...

With 2.6.38-1 linux kernel (sid), now when X crashes (still every day
after some period of time), nothing work anymore. The keyboard/screen is
frozen, I need to restart manually the computer.

With vesa driver, I don't have crash but I can't used tvtime to watch
television.
