Description:

With current versions of xorg/kernel/intel drivers as of today the display will randomly freeze after some time with the following errors flooding the xorg log:

(EE) intel(0): Failed to submit batch buffer, expect rendering corruption or even a frozen display: Input/output error.

I believe this is the same issue being discussed on the gentoo bugtracker here:

http://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=301282

My current versions:

local/xorg-server 1.7.3.902-1
local/kernel26 2.6.32.3-1
local/xf86-video-intel-newest 2.10.0-2 *

* This also happens when using the stock driver in extra: extra/xf86-video-intel 2.9.1-1

My graphics:

agpgart-intel 0000:00:00.0: Intel 945G Chipset

00:02.0 VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation 82945G/GZ Integrated Graphics Controller (rev 02)
This task depends upon

Additional comments about closing:  Search for it. Besides that, xf86-intel-newest is an unofficial package.

You don't have to reopen, just add that the problem persists with xf86-video-intel 2.10.0-1 but is solved with latest intel driver from git, http://intellinuxgraphics.org/download.html
