Good to hear this patch is working for all who tested it. Remember, it's not intended to address the issue when playing Xv, that is a separate (but possibly related) bug. Peter Clifton has been working on investigating this. Can someone research and find out what the loop is used for? If we can

michelem, I have the same issue but only when I use one of the VESA resolutions using the vga kernel parameter. If I don't use this parameter, I have standard VGA text mode (80x25) but usable VTs. This is may be related to bug #147606 or bug #150797 or both. I'll test xserver-xorg-video-intel_2.1.
