2007-07-16 21:07:03 Conn O Griofa bug assigned to xorg-server (upstream)
2007-07-16 21:15:00 Conn O Griofa description Binary package hint: xserver-xorg-core I have detailed the problem extensively upstream, so I'll post a summary here: I have discovered that the patch "120_fedora_disable_offscreen_pixmaps.diff" causes a system freeze when using a combination of the Intel driver with EXA enabled (XAA is fine) and compiz. It has been reproduced on two of my systems using 855GM and 865G respectively). I recompiled xserver-xorg-core with the aforementioned patch disabled, and all is well. I would appreciate if the Ubuntu Xorg maintainers could revise this patch or drop it entirely. Everything is detailed upstream, which I will tag here.
