@Robert I don't know if any of my installed applications use hw h264 acceleration, but once in a while (every few days) I still experience GPU hangs even with the kernel from #38. The situation improved a LOT though with it. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubunt

@si14: that's an unrelated issue and harmless. Also happens with the latest stable natty kernel. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to xserver-xorg-video-intel in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/761065 Title: [Sandybridge] Sp

Have been running the kernel from #38 for a few hours now, and it seems to fix the bug. No GPU lockups or hangs, no error messages in dmesg. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to xserver-xorg-video-intel in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchp

@Pascal no I did not, however I updated the packages only yesterday, so I can't really tell yet. I did not make any measurements on battery life before the update either, so I don't think I'll be able to give you exact numbers on any change on battery life. -- You received this bug notification

Yesterday I updated from the xorg-edgers ppa and the bug seems to be gone now. I even set the semaphore parameter to "0", which was a sure way to trigger this problem, and now there are no error messages about GPU hangs in dmesg. This Phoronix article also suggests that this problem was fixed in

Using the latest 2.6.38 kernel from Natty stable this message popped up in dmesg a few times every hour (my system always coming to a complete halt for 1-2 seconds), and after a few hours my system eventually freezed (this is a Lenovo X220 with Sandy Bridge). Setting the semaphore parameter to "1"
