Hi, guys!

I was testing the 2.6.31-10 kernel (just upgraded the box). The 'parkinson's desease' problem from boot up is gone. After I removed the the i915 from the blacklist, I got a stable screen on boot up.

However, when I removed the xorg.conf (that I use to stick with vesa) I think I got the hardware acceleration back _but_ the box pseudo-hangs when kde is still starting my environment (past the splash screen, while loading the applications). It happened twice after updating so I'm sticking with vesa for now. I was able to reboot with alt-sysrq key combinations (that's why I said it pseudo-crashes).

What can I do so that I gather some information for you regarding these situation?
