Comment 103 for bug 541492

No matter how far I back up to older kernels (within the Lucid family) I
still get crashes of X that require power off and power back on. I have
tried, after enabling the key combos, to cnt - alt - bcksp to restart X but
that does not seem to do anything either. There does not appear to be any
rhyme or reason. I always get a good start up. IT may be an hour or a
whole day. I may click the address bar in Chromium or I may try to save in
Gimp. Any action (always seem to be when I click the mouse for something) I
can get a crash. Never a guarantee either way.

I am working on a Dell SX260 mini desktop with I845.
