Did it help? I am still running the quite old 1.22. (Well its not old, but=

Try a newer kernel. I am currently running 2.6.39-2 from Debian Unstable=20
which already contains 2.6.39.1 fixes. But the lockup just happened a few=20
minutes ago, so 2.6.39.1 does not fix it.

Or upgrade X.org stack, Mesa, libdrm and Intel driver. When an update is=20
available. I have everything from Debian Unstable.

Ciao,
