commit 14667a4bde4361b7ac420d68a2e9e9b9b2df5231 Author: Chris Wilson <ch...@chris-wilson.co.uk> Date: Tue Apr 3 17:58:35 2012 +0100 drm/i915: Finish any pending operations on the framebuffer before disabling Similar to the case where we are changing from one framebuffer to another, we need to be sure that there are no pending WAIT_FOR_EVENTs on the pipe for the current framebuffer before switching. If we disable the pipe, and then try to execute a WAIT_FOR_EVENT it will block indefinitely and cause a GPU hang. -- 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/768184 Title: [i965gm] GPU lockup (ESR: 0x00000001 IPEHR: 0x01800020) - Black screen (dpms?)
