OK, I did try just upgrading the kernel, which didn't help. I have tried 2.6.32-rc7 from the mainline kernels. However, the description of xorg-edgers worries me. This the laptop that I work on, so I rather have a non freezing X, without sound, 3D acceleration, than a non working laptop. Could I just add the ppa to my sources and update the packages? And if that fails, roll them back without any harm? Or is it more difficult? (If it is this easy, and I will always be able to revert to the status I am in now, I will give it a try)
