I don't know if they looked exactly like the above since all the hangs have been rotated out of my logs :(. I ended up concluding that it was actually a regression in xf86-video-intel rather than the kernel (but no real way of testing this), since there was a lot of Xv related churn in the driver around the time I was having the issues. So you might want to try again with the latest git xf86-video-intel and see if it still happens. -- Nick Bowler, Elliptic Technologies (http://www.elliptictech.com/) _______________________________________________ dri-devel mailing list dri-devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/dri-devel
