Hi all,
I have a question, did you guys test 2.6.36* kernels yet (2.6.37 has other issues)? I used to have "[drm:i915_hangcheck_elapsed] *ERROR* Hangcheck timer elapsed... GPU hung" in my logs too. However, the problem was not as severe as yours, gnome-session would crash, X would just drop dri/drm capabilities and vesa appears, bug #593463
I am not seeing this message in the logs anymore and experience no crashed, although I keep power-manager disabled and use dpms with "xset dpms 300 300 300"

(self-built kernel, you can just grab a similar one from here http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/ )
