I guess "latest" is xf86-video-intel-2.20.9-1

I guess. When I finish re-downloading the install media, I will boot to console and check.

Yes "the latest" is 2.20.9-1, which I believe came across from testing last night.

I tried it in testing, but it seg faulted. I reverted when it was clear the bug I'm having with my multi-touchscreen transformations is current in xorg-server. I should have reported the bug in testing, but I was distracted. My apologies.

Report it upstream in any way.

Pushed upstream. I was unable to find a matching bug.

logs ? errors ? any more info on this?

All I was able to see/extract before the crash was "GT thread timeout". It crashes so fast and hardlocks, you can't take a screenshot or get any log.

Check also  FS#30921 . There's not much we can do for you.

Please test the latest driver that is now in testing 2.20.10 and help upstream to find the reason for the crash. Also try different accelerations or none at all.

I can't confirm this with latest stable xorg and intel packages:

extra/xorg-server 1.13.0-3
extra/xf86-video-intel 2.20.12-1
