When I first installed Natty I got this error message on every boot up,
however the machine did not totally lock up. When I installed the
updates the next day, it booted normally without error messages and has
had no problems since. It looks like something in the updates fixed the
problem. Also, this laptop has had a hardware problem with the video
card, probably thermally related as it seems to work fine until you load
up the video card with say a full screen movie. When the video card
works hard and heats up I will get a video tear or vertical strips and a
HARD lock up requiring a hard shutdown and reboot. This problem on boot
did not cause a hard lockup and occurred on the boot when the video card
had not yet been doing much, so I did not think it a high probability it
was the same problem. Working fine after the daily Update Manager run.

Did not have similar error messages with Maverick, but did have the
occasional video lockup in both Maverick and Windows XP, which is what
led me to believe I have a thermal problem with the video card and not a
software driver issue. Those never threw an error code because they hard
locked the computer. Interestingly have not had a hard video lockup
since installing Natty, even when trying to push it with full screen
videos. May have to try Passmark or some similar video test in Linux.

Thanks,

Don

@Don, your issue is probably unrelated to this reporter's issue.

But yeah, thermal effects on gfx cards can be bad.

Hi Bryce,

Freezes seem to be video related. No freezes like this prior to natty. It seems
fixed now after various updates, previously it would happen randomly- unable to
reproduce reliably.

Regards,
Paul

Has anyone on the dupes of this bug found that the fig ppa helps?

(On another i915 gpu lockup bug report similar to this one, we're getting reports that the ppa makes the hangs go away; I need a few more yes votes to justify getting the fix in.)

This is a dupe of #727594; testing the above fig ppa would prove it but going by the error codes and chipset this is basically the same bug.

Launchpad won't let me mark it as a dupe though (times out).

xserver-xorg-video-intel (2:2.14.0-4ubuntu7.1) natty-proposed; urgency=low

  * Add 119_disable_relaxed_fencing.patch: The relaxed fencing
    optimization is suspected as the cause for various i915/945 gpu lockup
    issues. This disables the optimization by default but adds an
    xorg.conf parameter to let people experiment with it turned on.
