I'm going to dupe this against the master bug report for i855 freezing
issues, and follow up on the periodic freezing issue there.

A real fix was posted for the invisible cursor issue, so I incorporated
it into linux-image-2.6.35-ppa21+v9patch-generic (building now).
As for the periodic freezing issue, that is covered by this bug:
https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=29536
The patches there don't apply cleanly to 2.6
My shadow branch PPA is now obsolete because the code was committed
upstream. So now you only need xorg-edgers and the xorg.conf changes to
enable a shadow buffer.
Jean-Marie, do you observe the glxinfo-triggered segfault if you remove
my shadow branch PPA and switch the xserver-xorg-video-intel p

To use this fixed kernel, run the following commands:
sudo apt-add-repository ppa:brian-rogers/graphics-fixes
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get dist-upgrade
- sudo apt-get install linux-image-2.6.35-ppa20+v9patch-generic
+ sudo apt-get
The invisible cursor fix will be sent to stable and make it into
Maverick that way. I don't know if it will make it in before release,
though.
As for the stability fix, Daniel Vetter has said the following:

This appears to be the same problem as bug 541492. It's just that most
people weren't hitting the bug with any degree of frequency until Lucid.
Duping.

Yeah, ubuntu-bug won't upload a bug report on an unofficial package
version. It also gathers and attaches the output of glxinfo in its
graphics-related bug reports, so it's pretty useless when the bug report
is "glxinfo crashes X". :)
Do you have a machine to SSH into the affected system from? I c
Maverick now defaults to using the fbdev xorg driver by default instead
of intel for i8xx chips, and this should work around the freezing bug.

Yeah, it's expected that you'll get software rendering with that option
turned on. It's a safe mode that can't use OpenGL.
Now that it correctly uses software rendering instead of crashing, I'll
mark this as fixed.

Hardeep, you should file a new bug report for that. It's not related to
