Comment 27 for bug 574854

The ppa:glasen/intel-driver and ppa:glasen/855gm-fix 855gm-fix-exp-dkms packages downloaded 2010-07-04 work for my X40 so far: booting does not hard-freeze with a black screen, compiz effects work, xv movie-playing works, suspend works. thank you.

I've made no other changes for the problem, though I have been running without 'quiet' and 'splash' in grub for years because I find all that pretty boot wallpaper garbage stupid and dangerous.

Suspend while playing a movie did not work. :) also I've only been testing for about 1 hour.
