*** This bug is a duplicate of bug 946899 *** https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/946899
Read somewhere that this bug was fixed, so checked out CHANGES in the new kernel builds, Chris Wilson and Daniel Vetter among others are working with a lot of fixes for this driver. Hoping it was fixed somewhere among all those contributions, my system and logs related to the drm:i915_hangcheck_hung ERROR is printed below. However, upgrading reduced the *rate* of the error, but came back today. When working with Blender or Eclipse, programs using a lot of memory, system suddenly freeze. The mouse cursor is still movable, but the rest is frozen. uname -a: Linux robtu 3.8.0-030800rc7-generic #201302081635 SMP Fri Feb 8 21:57:43 UTC 2013 i686 i686 i686 GNU/Linux syslog: Feb 21 23:34:41 robtu kernel: [233139.352461] [drm:i915_hangcheck_hung] *ERROR* Hangcheck timer elapsed...
