What's the edgers/package-based workaround? I tried the following (on Linux Mint 17):
sudo apt-add-repository ppa:xorg-edgers/ppa && sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade ...and I got some new packages, but also saw that some were held back: The following packages have been kept back: libegl1-mesa libgbm1 libgl1-mesa-dri:i386 libgl1-mesa-dri libqt5gui5 libwayland-egl1-mesa libxatracker2 lxc-docker mintupdate python-cupshelpers system-config-printer-gnome After restarting the system, I still get a Firefox crash or black screen when hitting http://www.google.com/chrome/ (which I think was part of the same problem--I don't think I ever had a 100% reproducible Chrome/YouTube test case). -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to xorg in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1388612 Title: [GM965] GPU lockup running OpenGL applications on Dell Vostro 1510 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/mesa/+bug/1388612/+subscriptions _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat Post to : ubuntu-x-swat@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
