Success report - running a HP 2133 (Mini Note).  (Model KX869AT)

CN896/VN896/P4M900 [Chrome 9 HC] (rev 01)

I upgraded from Ubuntu 8.04 to Ubuntu 8.10 and noticed that these functions:
"Suspend"
"Hibernate"
"Lock Screen"
"Log Out"
changing from X display to a VTY with CTRL-ALT-F1
or allowing the screensaver to kick-in
Would cause the Xserver to segfault and log the following message:"
[ 5032.490431] Xorg[5194]: segfault at 0 ip 00000000 sp bffc5c2c error 4 in 
Xorg[8048000+18f000]

I thought it might be related to this bug so I followed the instructions
posted above ( https://help.ubuntu.com/community/OpenChrome ) and pulled
version 697 from openchrome SVN.

I'm very glad to report that it all works now.  Screensaver and logging
out and suspending - no segfaults on the Xserver now.   While I didn't
have the same issues with gdm or the mouse cursor, whatever changed
solved my issues too.  Hope this is helpful.

I will test .deb files as they become available.
