Can you suggest a way to get a proper backtrace? I've tried the steps suggested in the wiki, but despite having xserver-xorg-core-dbg, xserver-xorg-video-intel-dbg, and libgl1-mesa-dri-dbg installed, gdb cannot seem to resolve addresses into symbolic names. Do I need to point to the debug libraries specifically somehow?

I have had the error messages mentioned above in some of my X logs after lockups, but I also have the strace and exact behavior of the other bug. Additionally, disabling compiz (as mentioned in the other bug) has prevented EITHER condition from recurring. Perhaps I should follow up only with the other bug?

(Though, if I could get a backtrace, it might help clarify and would certainly help the other bug report.)
