Actually the screensaver is an opengl one, but the hangs happens also if i switch vt's immediately after login. I don't think i have other special effects but i will try starting X and then glxgears. BTW, for me it happens with a _wired_ connection, although the ipw2200 (+ vanilla kernel 2.6.21.* right now) are loaded. I will also try unloading them. But as said previously, it works like a charm with the older i810 package... > > (**) intel(0): DPI set to (120, 160) > > Yes, this is a known problem. what to do there, wait for an update or try to compensate in xorg.conf? > > (WW) intel(0): Option "VBERestore" is not used > > (WW) intel(0): Option "DisplayInfo" is not used > > (WW) intel(0): Option "MonitorLayout" is not used > > (WW) intel(0): Option "Clone" is not used > > (WW) intel(0): Option "CloneRefresh" is not used > > All these options seem useless. fine for the first 3, the clone options where needed (ok, with i810, right) to get the dualhead (lcd + external beamer) to work.
