Bug#680514: xserver-xorg-video-intel: X locks up with EQ overflow

found 680514 2:2.19.0-4
thanks

Julien,

I have duplicated this on an up-to-date wheezy install.  I have not 
tried without the kernel parameters.  I can try that and see what 
happens.  It could be hours between freezes, or days; it's hard to predict.

Those options are all related to power management and are fairly 
innocuous from all my reading.  They're clearly documented out there and 
see mto be generally recommended on laptops.  Moreover, they had been 
working fine in the past.
