I don't think the fix in <https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=15544> solved the problem for me. That fix was in 2.6.35-rc2, but the problem happened for me even with the 2.6.36 kernel.
However, the good news is that the error is now gone; or rather the error shows up but is cleared so the system doesn't hang. I don't know exactly which kernel solved the problem. I think it was 2.6.38. What I noticed different in the dmesg log is that, ever since I stopped experiencing hangs, the following line showed up implying that the error is being cleared automatically: [1099952.207172] [drm:i915_report_and_clear_eir] *ERROR* EIR stuck: 0x00000010, masking Here's a few more lines of context from the current dmesg output (Debian 2.6.39 kernel): [830137.389798] [drm:intel_opregion_setup], graphic opregion physical addr: 0x0 [830137.389804] [drm:intel_opregion_setup], ACPI OpRegion not supported!
