Hi Mikkel,
Thanks for the post. I have check this before compiling the driver. In first press button - no harm
, working fine. But if press it again, laptop get freeze; and trigger a kernel panic. here is the
info i get.
Code: Bad EIP Value.
EIP: [<7f7e7dc4>] 0x7f7fe7dc4 SS:ESP 0068:f7c7aca4
Kernel Panic - not syncing: Attempted to kill the idle task!
I have no issue when scpi=off, non-intel driver.
I can't use any other driver because wide-screen is not supporting
Please advice..

Hi,
I'm having a laptop HP Compaq 6710b running on Fedora 8 with the
latest updates. I have an issue that when I press the lid button, the
Laptop get freeze and the possible way is to recover -- hard power
reset. I noticed that this is due to the video card driver which is
Intel 965GM. I changed to some other diver vesa and it is working
fine. And other thing I checked, if I shut the ACPI (acpi=off)
everything is fine but I loss lots of features on my laptop.
I download the Intel drivers from the
http://intellinuxgraphics.org/download.html and compiled it.
xf86-video-intel and drm. Then it is started to work. But if I run the
system-config-display and save the xorg.conf with Intel driver, it
freezes again. And only recovering is re-compiling the drm and
xf86-video-intel. I can't install the meas for 3D GL driver too --
giving compilation issue.
Please let me know if someone has working config with Intel Mobile GM
960 driver with mesa.
Thanks in advance

You may want to edit /etc/acpi/events/video.conf and see it that fixes
the problem without having to compile your own driver.
