[natty] Intel graphics X server freezes with "[drm:drm_mode_getfb] *ERROR* invalid framebuffer id"

[boskicinek]

Binary package hint: xserver-xorg-video-intel

I'm experiencing problem with display on my laptop. Basically everything, except mouse pointer, freezes and nothing helps - I can't even restart X server! I can switch to text console and that works fine, but the only way to back to graphic mode is to reboot entire machine:/.
It happened already 3 times in 3 days. AFAIR in all 3 cases just after I've unplugged power adaptor.

I have the same bug as well but I can just kill x from console and I don'T have to reboot

I should had, I'm using Gnome and not Kde, in natty, upgraded not clean install, Desktop cpu/gpu is intel core i5 650.
This has been occuring since I upgraded couple of days after release. several times a day in some cases. it doesn'T happen every time the monitor goes to sleep. turned off the screen saver, turned off the energy saver, tried screen saver alone, this is definaltely a problem with the energy saver part.

Bitten by this on a thinkpad T61 with an intel card. Let me know if you need any specific information to help resolve the issue.

I do see the same behaviour on my Computer. It has an Intel 4300 Graphics card.
But I don't think this is a duplicate of bug # 780923, as there the screen shows partially the applications.
Here, or at least on my screen, it is completely black, with backlight on, and I can see the mouse pointer and move it around on the screen, as if it was normaly working. But I can not see any window at all or interact with them.
Switching to Console is possible(Ctrl+Alt+F1,F2,..) and back.
Everytime I switch to the X-Server, an other line is written to the kernel.log, looking like this:

Jul 5 21:55:39 nepotech kernel: [15774.021913] [drm:drm_mode_getfb] *ERROR* invalid framebuffer id

This bug is definately critical, as the X-Server doesn't work any more, and so all the normal programms used for everyday work have to be killed.
