I've just raised this bug in the Kernel's bugzilla. Basically, the kernel froze once the screensaver kicked in, in what appears to be an unpredictable unrepeated fashion.

Anyone else seeing GPU lockups with 2.6.38.2?

Does the Xorg patch apply to 1.9.5? I am undirecting full-screen windows in Compiz.

this only is specific for 2.6.38 based kernels, right ?
I'm asking this because I'm also seeing the display output locking up when playing flash while fullscreen
Code:grep -v '^ *#' /etc/adobe/mms.cfg AllowUserLocalTrust = 0 AutoUpdateDisable = 1 AVHardwareDisable = 1 DisableDeviceFontEnumeration = 1 DisableProductDownload = 1 FileDownloadDisable = 1 FileUploadDisable = 1 FullScreenDisable = 0 OverrideGPUValidation = 1
using adobe flash 64bit 10.3 beta, alpha or whatever
system is Gentoo ~amd64 multilib
thanks !

(I'm using 2.6.37.2 btw)
I'm still wondering why stupid flash makes the GPU hang in full flash (this also happened with fglrx while I still used it, btw)
so it seems flash is doing mean things to the graphics cards

I cannot reproduce this problem on demand.
